Interesting.  Is that real or simply photoshopped?

I'm convinced it is photoshopped.
... the attached pic is not exactly the same. It has a web address: military-photoshops.blogspot.com  - where there's some more variations, too.

How about some African FC-1s...say Zimbabwe?

Now that the fist JF-17B has flown, I wonder how long before we see any kits:

A few years ago (before my house filled with cats) I got thinking what if Japan had bought rights to the F-20 instead of the F-16, and applied similar steroids to it … bigger engine, wings, pumped up fuselage etc … it could have looked like the JF-17.  Blue paint, some ASM-1, -2’s and AAM’s …
