China may export J-10B fighters with Russian AL31FN-S3 engines to Pakistan

J10b is not using AESA so why not to go for j10c with AESA

I agree with the red part, but inducting more F-16s is financially a cheaper option and easy to do vs Inducting any new platform.

I don't think J10s will be completely an alien platform for Pakistan. It already has all the features JF17 has or will have, it is based on Israeli Lavi project which itself a copy of F16. Pakistan China Airforce have enjoyed a cordial relationship since decades and many reports suggests that we have flown their superior planes, so keeping all this mind, I don't think J-10 will take considerable time to integrate into Pakistani setup.

J-10b/c models in PAF would act like a data link for new upcoming technologies from china, an Aesa radar all sort of standoff weapons and new Air to air weapons can find their way into PAF. Around 100 plus companies work on new weapons testing based on j series aircraft where most testing a r on J-10 and J-11 aircrafts.
Just 2 squadrons in PAF can upload many new gadgets easily.
