Nope he was trying to say that during Musharaf era Pakistan was interested in J-10 which is true, PAF was about to procure 36 jets ( initial order) but then because of 2005 floods all the funds were diverted from this deal to victims of floods.He was referring to that 2005 deal.

He is trying to say that the J-10s which are coming ( means which are being developed by China) we inspected those jets back in 2005 musharaf era during China visit.

Yes I think Sheikh is referring to 2005 but J-10c should come to PAF. Pakistan should sign a deal.

J-10's are going to come... new development

 

[El Sidd]

Will These be delivered by train?

No, not coming. We already bought few old F16s to fill stop gap, maybe we buy more. PAF want 100 F16s. We have still one and half dozen less F16s than required numbers.

 

[BHarwana]

Is there a possibility that we already have J-10C?

No, not coming. We already bought few old F16s to fill stop gap, maybe we buy more. PAF want 100 F16s. We have still one and half dozen less F16s than required numbers.

J-10c is like F-16 and in armament it is even better and falls into Pakistani Air defense requirements.

 

[Secret Service]

J10C is more better option but at the moment more F16s are required by PAF.

I don't think so;
-We will keep on producing extra BLK IIs till 2021.
-Simultaneously we will procure second hand F-16s as many as we can.
-We will also upgrade existing fleet of thunders (BLK II) with new goodies most prob AESA upgrade.
-Then in 2021 we will get a fully operational squadron of BLK III thunders.
PAF will already be receiving used F-16s , BLK IIs and later on BLK IIIs thus no need for a new platform like J-10.
2021:
A decent fleet of;
-(16-20 JF-17 BLK IIIs +more on order
-(150 JF-17 BLK IIs)
-(100-120- F-16s)
-(20-50 ~ Mirages).

Mushraf missed the golden opportunity during 2001-2008 when USA love with Pakistan was at peak because of Afghan war. He could have easily get 100 more F-16s with very soft condition
