Why russian stealth jet stop AZM, for Pakistan Chinese j31 is more favorable then russian or even turkish, Pakistan is no way go to impose CAATSA on them.
Only thing that can be taken is its engine if its proven to be more efficient then Chinese
This was not for induction, the reality for project azam that this program will not be from scratch it will follow some blueprint of already developed 5th from friendly country, when some jet inherit from that jets but have own specifications as well become new jet .. azm have time to...
For PAF comparison of AIM-120C5s series and PL15 doesn't metter alot and fortunately they have both with them ... 😊
If Afghan card is played well then PAF even can have AIM-120C7 and AIM-120D in comings days
J10C can be better from F16s block 52 or less, but one thing is sure AIM-120 serious are battles proven for accuracy and PL 15 (on peper better) have to be yet tested in bettle for accuracy
Bro if you are having a day dream of having 2 aircarf carrier group for Pakistan, then also add some heavier and 5th gen naval jets on them instead of JFTs in your dream...😉😉
Yes J10C for now will gives quick boost to PAF in numbers of actual 4.5 gen jets and later when induction of JFTs blk 3 start will be cheery on the top.
Yes sir Afghan situation atleast can make C130 availability for us, we konw PAF are very much satisfied with C130 from decade's.
Royal airforce is getting rid multiple C130s which can be considered (if get in cheaper cost)
