Also the idea of using the engine code to serial a plane seems quite odd.
we all can only make assumptions at this point. so it's best to wait for more info to come out about this aircraft from CAC.

Tianshui Aircraft Corporation. A very small subsidiary of AVIC, which has no experiece of manufacturing plane before, but foucsed on reparing aircraft

Interesting, but isn't this then a suitable partner to manufacture parts or even larger components of the FC-1/JF-17 ??

Why so? I consider improving defence relations with Afghanistan is in the interest of both countries. If we can come to work together, Afghans can be good parteners. Till what time we will keep hating them? Making them partners will be better, no?

JF 17 is an excellent choice for Afghan Air Force. Low cost economical fighter with good air to ground capability, something they need. They will have added, unique advantage of using maintenance facilities of Pakistan located so close. This will make sure their fleet remains in good health, always. We can withhold systems like BVRs and EW suite so that Iran and Central Asia are not alarmed. I dont think Afghan AF will be much interested in those. It will also bring costs down for Afghanistan too.

It is better to engage Afghanistan on friendly terms than to show hostility, forever IMO. One day we, both nations have to come together and resolve our issues.
