But again what sense would an AL-31FN-powered JF-17 make ?? ... even more it is not that simple: You would need a new and enlarged intake system, with that the whole aircraft's structure would change ...
It would cost a lot to redesign, test again and certify a de facto new aircraft that nearly already exists. As such it would be much simpler and even more cost effective to purchase the J-10.
As a result: CAC will surely does not make this from their own ... and I highly doubt that Pakistan could pay this alone.
