But this is based on the first post ... and now all other posts are gone too??? But that does not mean the topic itself is forbidden? :unsure:

Yes I noticed too, that someone deleted this thread? But I don't know why since this was the only thread for this type, whereas we have multiple threads for other types. Maybe @The Eagle can help?

Indeed, it is the mix of too much mess at school, several conferences today, too little sleep and some other stuff around.

No. 03 ready for launch!

I gave up, you cannot argue with them since any reasonable question - not even a critical one - just a question or common international standard procedures which are openly public in any other project but this one is immediately taken as an insult, an offence and rejected in the harshest way...

It already has and since both projects are IMO no longer a Tejas I can only suggest to continue all TEDBF stuff here: Yes. This is TEDBF: Explained How it is different from MWF-AF | Pakistan Defence

IMO IF - and I'm indeed inclined to slowly revise my previous guess that these J-10Cs at CAC are not for Pakistan (lets call it a feeling!) - this deal goes ahead, then I expect an even larger order of at least enough to equip three if not four squadrons. This typical Indian procurement to get...

Again, what's the source of this LATEST NEWS? Is this based by some hype in a certain forum picked up by a reporter to hype up again this news or is this "rampant news" based on a new credible source? In fact I would be happy if they were all for Pakistan since it would be tremendous boast for...

That's my concern too, just remember how many early Batch 01 J-11B were standing for long at SAC before being delivered to the PAAF due to engine issues. I don't want to claim the engine is the reason, eventually it is a shortage of a certain other item - maybe due to the pandemic - that limits...

Indeed, but I also noted several times that I don‘t think they are for Pakistan

At best scrapped

Latest update And maybe a moderator can mere all these different KFX threads!

Latest update:

I'm sorry if this offends you and indeed I'm leaning more towards China; not in the sense of their political system (I rate highly critical) but in the sense of their latest achievements in the aviation sector. I fact I still share the same interest and sympathy to India (even if I rate here...

No they don't! They never admitted they received the design and in fact both sides - Israel & China - have vehemently rejected it. For sure, there have been contacts (the famous photo showing Song Wencong in front of the Lavi is well known) but from all I heard, the Israeli contribution was more...

This is quite a typical habit, the PLAAF replaces the old top-tier fighters (like in this case the old Su-30MKK and J-11/Su-27SK) with the new top-tier fighter in the elite regiments/brigades and then replaces even older types like J-7 and J-7 with those fighters. As such, nothing unusual nor...

Wow ... no-one posted the latest iteration? :azn:

Unlikely ... you don't leave J-10s unused when there are still J-7/8s around and the J-20 regardless how great it is, it cannot replace everything in service. I'm convinced it must be another reason.

Yes, but unlike the Chinese J-10, which is a cloned Israeli Lavi this design is "Indi-genous" :omghaha:

Just for fun since it is a nice CG showing a JF-17 in what-if colours operated by the PLAAF in a fictive 120th Air Brigade. :azn: (CG via @inSky_1865 from Weibo)
