JF-17 Thunder VERTICAL Take-Off – Paris Air Show 2015The flying display of the Chengdu JF-17 Thunder Fighter during the Paris Air Show 2015 was amazing. I have never seen a fighter land with a breaking – parachute before. This time I would like to say sorry for a few vibrations which occured during filming. The JF-17 was very fast and I used a very high focal distance. It was very hard for me to follow the fast movements of this fighter.
The PAC JF-17 Thunder is a lightweight, single-engine, multi-role combat aircraft developed jointly by the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC) and the Chengdu Aircraft Corporation (CAC) of China. The JF-17 can be used for aerial reconnaissance, ground attack and aircraft interception. Its designation “JF-17” by Pakistan is short for “Joint Fighter-17”, while the designation and name “FC-1 Xiaolong” by China means “Fighter China-1 Fierce Dragon”.
Thanks for watching, I hope you liked it and please don` t forget to rate.
