here is a latest j20 model offer to pak AVM Muhammad Haseeb Paracha.
If China wants to keep
pretend to be Pakistan's all weather friend, it must stop selling just low tech gears (like J-7 and FC-17) to Pakistan.
India has signed a deal with Russia to get the 5-Gen fighter from Russia, F-16 from USA, and Rafael from France.
J-10 or J-16 is out of the question, because Russia would object, and J-10(B, C) is not much better than the F-16, Pakistan already has.
A downgraded export version J-20 for Pakistan, with engines like WS-10X, and less powerful radar and avionic, would be appropriate.
CIA has infiltrated all levels of Pakistan society and government, including the military and security agency.There is a significant risk of US, getting its hand, on a full version J-20, if its exported to Pakistan.
So only a J-20, with a downgraded engine like WS-10x, should be exported, not the mega-powerful, +210kN, WS-15 engine, which is currently in service with the LRIP planes.
Pakistan has already said a big
"NO" to the junky FC-31. If PLAAF is not interested, in the piece of sh*t, FC-31, I don't see why would, the battle hardened and highly competent Pakistan Air Force, would even take a look at it..
China is already working on the 6-Gen. fighter, so in 8-10 years, an export version of J-20 with downgraded engine like 15 tons WS-10X, could be exported.
Pakistan has already expressed strong interest in J-20.
