Guys - is it realistic that you can counter Rafales with J-10s? Even those equipped with AESA radar and PL-15s (equipped with whatever advanced sensor)?

@Two what is the PLAAF view and general consensus in China please? Thanks for your opinion...

The J-10A is sufficient to support any high-intensity combat.
It's all the world's top fighters, and there's not much difference in technology. More important is the pilots fighting skills.

And aviation materials and processing are very important. As we all know, there are some China small Private Companies（as Bright Laser Technologies）, in fact it has the world's leading technology.

Airbus partners with China Aviation Materials

On November 21, Yang Xiaoming, general manager of Chinese aviation company China Aviation Materials (CAAC), signed a deal, "Airbus, China Aviation Equipment Group, Hongyuan Company's Supply Agreement on Aviation Forge Parts (Amendment 4)", with Airbus and metal AM company Bright Laser Technologies. This is a significant supply agreement for 3D printed aviation parts between Airbus, China Aviation Equipment Group, and Bright Laser Technologies.

The official signing of this 3D printing agreements shows the success already achieved by China Aviation Materials' in exploring new technologies and new products, and its growth in the field of industrial cooperation over many years. The next step for China Aviation Materials will be to work closely with Bright Laser Technologies to promote the use of 3D printing technology on Airbus’ commercial aircraft. BLT, which was founded back in 1990, has become the country’s largest supplier of additively manufactured metal parts in the wake of founder Professor Huang Wei-dong first launcing research into metal additive manufacturing in 1995.

Where did you get this idea from?

All 3 branches of the military are being modernised as per "Forces Goal 2030". Only BAF seems to be lacking at this moment.

A country that will near 200 million people by 2030 and a GDP in excess of 1 trillion US dollars definitely needs a strong military to safeguard it's interests.

Usually, we compare Chinese airplanes with US airplanes.

well, compared to something like the f-16 j-10c matches it or exceed it in certain areas.... other than that, european/ other US airrcrafts are far superior than chinese or russian systems

I do not think that the Western planes are "far superior" to the J-10C. The J-10C has a lot of tech that was developed for J-20 incorporated into it. Western planes are better for sure but probably not by much.

Maybe for the first time we saw BAF MIG-29SE flying with fuel tanks

Maybe after a decades....

J-10 has little chances to train with European or USA fighter aircrafts.
But in 2017, J-10A completely defeated JAS-39C/D during China-Thailand airforce joint exercise.

i literally don't get it, what's the point of flying an offensive weapon when you're going to load all it's hardpoint with refuel tanks.... seems counterintuitive

could also be the result of a poorly trained thai pilots.... or them concealing it's ability...

During China-Thailand airforce joint exercise in 2015, JAS-39C/D performed better than Su-27SK. And two years later (2017), PLAAF brought J-10A to Thailand for the first time, and defeated JAS-39C/D.
