Hi,

That is correct---there is no other choice but the J10 C with Aesa---for a single engine aircraft---.

That is the best bang for the buck---paf can develop it to its needs in the next 5 years---chinese electronics warfare technology is expanding in potency in leaps and bounds alongwith the weapons.

I remember having this discussion in the past for J-10C. It was concluded that it is not much different from JF-17 and therefore not required. What has changed now? JF-17 MK3 would be equal to J-10C, so why not expedite the up gradation process?

Advance preparation for facing ISIS?

its a joke if you ask me, the USA gives away F-16s like there old action figures, yet when it comes to pakistan, they increase the price of each unit to 100 million and only are willing to provide 8. and then congress blocks it. they can keep there f-16s.
