China's CCTV7 channel did a segment on the PAFs new fighters.
-talked about the basic history of Pakistan's acquisition of Chinese aircraftsummary ???
-talked about the basic history of Pakistan's acquisition of Chinese aircraft
-J-10CE gives PAF improved multi-role capability, comment that Pakistan still had time to decide on procurement, but in the current environment they are putting more importance on cooperation with China, Western options have many conditions attached that can restrict operations, Pakistan now able to get high overall performance, rely on China's overall manufacturing power and plug into Pakistan's already existing support infrastructure for Chinese equipment to boost defense capabilities
-development history of JF-17, made a brief mention that the -17 designation was to indicate it surpassed the F-16, JF-17 first to use DSI that was then used on later Chinese fighters J-10C and J-20, used a new method of design and manufacture that allows new features to be added without need to redesign the entire plane as was done for previous projects
-K-8 development history
-acquisitions of Chinese aircraft starting at J-6/F-6
-countering IAF new fighters, F-16 will have difficulties with upgrades because of USG obstacles
-J-10CE will be hi, JF-17 -lo of hi-lo mix
-looking forward to future cooperation of Pakistan with Chinese defense and aerospace industry as it continues to progress (FC-31 is hinted at)
I probably left out a couple things, don't think I saw anything brand new here that wasn't covered in previous threads

There was a J-10C documentary from CCTV7 at the end of March that mentioned it can carry YJ-91 and Kh-88 missiles for ground attack (shouldn't be anything new either).
No new sightings besides the 6 initial yet?
