The JF-17 is one of the only aircraft owned and operated by the Akula Group, the first units being bought in late 2009. The aquisition of this equipment have caused controversy with India's Air Force, since they helped modernize Akula's MiG-21, ending the contract they had to provide replacement parts for it's older aircrafts.
The Группа Акула is a fictional group of independent renegade fighters from all over the globe, who organized themselves into a mostly cohesive unit. The group operates mostly like a PMC, and is usually contracted to fill in for weak or poorly equipped air forces, such as in Africa and in the Middle East, and currently also operating in Ukraine to recruit soldiers from both sides. The origins of the group are unknown, but it's believed that it started in a former soviet airbase in late 1991 as pilots and mechanics found themselves whitout a flag they believed in. No politics, no flags, only sharks.
