. .
From IDEAS first prototype will be ready by May 2019 but than trials and tests will begin which would take several months

Very interesting, I'm guessing there was a press conference?

Another source (Muzammil Hatami) stated that the Block III prototype would be publicly displayed in May 2019 but I'm not sure of his credibility.

He is right. If prototype is ready by May 2019 only than we would have first squadron by 2021.

Some insider news,

The JF-17 Block-3 is set to make a flight in August 2019 possibly on Pakistan independence Day.
The J-10C is without a doubt a very hi-tech platform and was the highlight of the exercise. But what is more intriguing is the fact that the Chinese had brought a PL-10 on the J-10C as well. Among the most lethal AAM of its class and if mated with the helmet on Block-3 JF it will wreak havoc . The folks also checked out its Eletro-Optical and IR sensor which again is being considered to be incorporated in Block-3. If both these add-ons are incorporated in Block-3 then any enemy edge is significantly blunted.
Block-3 will play a major role in a deal with Jordan and other Arab countries are waiting anxiously.
PAA is acquiring 60 ATAK gunships in two batches of 30.

Just a simple question and that's that will JF-17 Thunder Block-3 be competitive enough to take on f-16 block-70?
this is the question which has been answered with confusion in the minds of even the experts but now that we are knowing this much information as we are coming close to the induction so what's yours and other senior's thoughts on it?
