It depends on how much money China is willing to lose, because there's no way in hell that the PAF can afford to operate 5th gen fighters.

Personally, if I were PAF chief, I would just go for advanced SAMs.

Price is small considering it helps maintain regional balance in the area. Wars are started when one country is much stronger than the other.

Perception is very important.

If China considers it to be important for their interests, they can export J-20s to Pakistan. But don't expect to recieve any payment for them.

Hell they are not that poor. A squadron would cost like 4 billion. I'm sure they can afford that over a decade....

They had to cancel an order for 70 F-16s because they couldn't afford them. They bought 18 instead.

And don't forget maintenance costs, which I doubt would be cheap for 5th gen fighters.

Again, its much safer, cheaper, and effective to get advanced SAMs instead.

There is no proven SAMs against fifth gen fighter though.

Someone please help get Godless Bastard to Toilet , he already is having motions by the sound of it. Relax we aren't buying them NOW but we will pay any price for our defense - history has proven it.

Unnecessary comment. Argue if you must but no profane insinuations please.

Between J-20 and J-16, which one is more comparable to f-22 and which one more to f-35, or is there a completely different type of classification?

Idiots... It all depends on the Sino-Indian relations. If India pisses China off, then the deal is on. If not, China is more then content to keep such tech to itself.

5th Gen fighter is our need for defense , we would like it to come from China or Pakistan would again have to kneel to the US at the cost of friends.
These things are discussed among leaders of the countries and i do hope it goes well on the eastern side.

As for the price , we have 10 years to collect resources and field such an aircraft which is more than enough considering that our requirement isn't going to be more than 2 squadrons.

Its not that simple. Even if Sino Indian relations are fine and dandy Pakistan is still one of China's closest allies. We would look to be unreliable if we abandoned allies simply because of better relations with others.
