As Chinese Premier Li Keqiangwrapped up his "impressive" visit to Pakistan to firm up their economicand military ties, a Pakistan official said "numerous countries" areinterested in obtaining JF-17 Thunder fighter jet jointly developed byboth the countries.
"We've been receiving inquiries and expressions of interest on theJF-17 Thunder from many countries in the Middle East, Africa and even asfar as South America," Air Marshal Sohail Gul Khan, the chairman of thePakistan Aeronautical Complex, told state-run China Daily.
The JF-17 Thunder -- or the FC-1 Fierce Dragon as it's known in China-- is a third-generation multipurpose combat jet co-developed byAviation Industry Corp of China and the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex,which is in charge of manufacturing and maintaining the Pakistan AirForce's aircraft.
隨着中國總理李克強結束對巴基斯坦“令人印象深刻”的訪問，穩定了中巴經濟和軍事關係，一位巴基斯坦官員稱“許多國家”有興趣購買兩國聯合研製的JF-17雷電戰機。
巴基斯坦航空工業公司主席Sohail Gul Khan空軍中將在接受《中國日報》的採訪時稱，我們已經收到了來自中東、非洲乃至南非的許多國家對JF-17雷電戰機的詢問和意向書。
JF-17雷電——在中國被稱為FC-1梟龍戰機——是中國航空工業集團與負責生產和維護巴基斯坦空軍飛機的巴基斯坦航空工業公司合作開發的第三代多用途戰機。
The joint venture has produced substantial number of aircrafts already with engine supplied by Russia.
"During my trips to many countries, almost everyone I've met asked meabout the plane and many countries said they want to join the project,"Khan said.
The JF-17 is an "extremely capable aircraft" and its manoeuvrability and avionics are excellent, he said.
"The JF-17 is one of our top lightweight fighters, comparable to anyadvanced aircraft in the Pakistan Air Force," said Air Vice-MarshalJavaid Ahmed, chief director of the JF-17 project.
在俄羅斯提供發動機的前提下，中巴合資企業已經生產了大量的戰機。
Khan說，我訪問過許多國家，幾乎碰到的每個人都會向我問及這款飛機，許多國家稱他們想加入這個項目。JF-17雷電戰機是一款“能力非常強的戰機”，它的機動性很棒，航空電子設備很先進。
JF-17項目總監Javaid Ahmed空軍副中將稱，JF-17是我們的其中一款頂級輕型戰鬥機，能夠媲美巴基斯坦空軍中的任何先進飛機。
The Pakistan AeronauticalComplex has already produced more than 40 JF-17s, he noted, adding thecooperation project between China and Pakistan on the aircraft is stillunder way with technicians from both nations focusing on the upgradingof weapons and avionics.
In addition, Khan said the Pakistan Air Force has also been eyeingother Chinese military planes and may take part in the development ofother aircraft in the future.
他指出，巴基斯坦航空工業公司已經生產了超過40架JF-17戰機，中巴有關這款飛機的合作項目仍然在進行，來自兩國的技術員正集中於升級武器和航空電子設備。
此外，Khan稱巴基斯坦空軍還看上了中國其他軍用飛機，未來也許會參加其他飛機的研發。
