Sir can you tell about what's difference between j10 c j10 s j10 Ah
J-10A, J-10S, J-10B, and J-10C are for PLAAF, while J-10AH and J-10SH for PLAN (navy versions of J-10A and J-10S).

Will the earlier J-10 models be upgraded to B or C standard or replaced?
 
J10A production began in 2002 or 2004, so early batches are already due for upgrade refits but we have not seen any evidence so far for MLU. If using J11A upgrade as example, most likely J10A will receive upgrade on mostly electronic sensor, including a new radar.

Priority will be using available resources to make new J10C, J16 and J20, thus funding for J10A upgrade will be minimum, just enough for it to perform in 2nd line air defence in taking over the roles of J7 and J8.
