[unicorn148]

40 million includes armament and parts. The fly away cost is around 25 million.

no it doesnt include the armament. It include the parts and even the armament and part will not be 15 million per plane
The fly away cost will be approx 35 million

Am pretty sure PAF will just buy a couple of squadrons of j 20 when it comes out.
by that time(2018-2020) they should be able to afford it

Pakistan would be out of this bad patch pretty soon.. we have trillions of dollars of Natural resources and 70% of population that is under the age of 30. We are a "Young Nation" and 6th largest country on the face of the earth. Our present situation is because of WAR of Terror and also because Musharaf and Zardari came together in a row but both WAR of Terror and era of corruption are both ending together.

I still don't think J-20 is something which we actually need. Yes we need a platform that can make deep strikes and is stealth but J-10b's stealth would be enough for that.

Very close to New Delhi from Pakistan, and the J-20 is big voyage.
PAF is a defensive air force, and the J-20 is a good long-range penetration fighter.
So J-20 is not suitable for PAF.
If the PAF want to attack New Delhi, The short-range missile is better than the J-20.

PAF needs of these：
Single-engine, Multi-purpose, Cheap, Easy maintenance, Stealth fighter
---------------------
After completion of the WS-15, Perhaps the CAC and the PAF can collaborate to study a fifth-generation fighter, on the basis of the J-10.

Are you really sure what you are saying?? Pakistan is 6th Largest Country on the Face of Earth?? , Your Population is 6th largest but the Country is not, Population is never an advantage if it overflows the Territorial Advantages.....

Do not worry about the FAFG.
If Russia does not make enough money, the India can not get to the FAFG.

Really?? Thats a Wonderful Phrase You have written, Now That It Needs explanation please consider it too.... Go ahead, Why do you think they will Not stick to the Contract?

T50 may be just a profitable project in Russia.
T50 stealth so bad, unlike Russia the highest level.


Russia may not use their own T50, T50 Russian development is for the money and technology accumulation.
Finally, Russia will develop and use MIG1.44 and Su47.

Russia won't develop and use MIG1.44 and Su47.

 

[cross1993]

Russia's huge territory is not suitable for T50.

What Russia wants the aircraft?
Cheap and Easy maintenance!

If the damaged aircraft in the Far East, it can not be sent to the European repair.
So Russia needs the MIG flight.

The Su27 is better than the MIG29, but the MIG29 more than the Su27 in Russian. Why?

[cross1993]

Russian is not urgent demand the fifth generation fighter aircraft, it is not worried about security.
Russia needs the money and time.

Russia can got the money and experience through the T50 project, And then develop their own needs MIG1.44.

Do you remember the Russia to give "free aircraft carrier" to India?
Maintenance costs in India have enough to spend two aircraft carriers built in China.
