The JF-17, China's new Fighter

"The JF-17 is the most advanced military aircraft for the Chinese air force. China with Pakistan have developed this modern jet, that looks similar to the F5 and F20 American jets." [YT]
JTZsays...

The Youtube description is incorrect. JF-17 is far from the most advanced fighter jet in the Chinese air force, it is not even being picked up by the Chinese air force yet as I remember. It was developed as a cheaper alternative of French Rafael, Saab Gripen JAS39, for developing countries/smaller countries to replace their aging fleet of Tornado and Mirage.
So far only Pakistan have ordered this aircraft from Chengdu Aircraft Industry Corporation (CAC)
