SAC - FC-31 Grey Falcon Stealth aircraft for PAF : Updates & Debate

. .
No, TFX is much better !

TFX is to be an air superiority fighter like the F-22. Might not be at par with the F-22 but the Turks are aiming for something as close to the Raptor as possible.
If we go the TFX way only, we might in future be discussing the unavailability of a strike platform in PAF, 2 decades from now. The role which the F-35 will serve primarily for U.S. and her allies.

I believe if money wasn't an issue and in ideal circumstances, the PAF would go for both the platforms. Gaining knowledge and expertise from both and marrying it into a local Fifth gen fighter when the JF17 Thunder would need replacement.

which avionics? indigenous or american?

Mostly Turkish, but details are rare. I believe we will have to wait for details till the time first prototype takes to air 2023.
We can have further discussion in the TFX thread. I don't like comments being deleted by mods.

Without a doubt, this 5th gen platform is a strong contender for PAF. I don’t see anything coming close to this.
