China Ready to Mass Market J10 OVER JF17

[aimarraul]

China will be selling many j-10's but the version will not be the same as PAF are getting that is j-10B!

i think Pakistan version will be even better ,they can easily upgrade the J-10B from the western countries

Two problems actually:

1) China won't be too keen in opening up its new hardware to western touch.

2) West will be a bit shaky in providing hardware since they fear it would eventually turn into the Chinese hand. Remember when RC-400 was offered for JF-17, a similar objection was raised because Taiwan has a similar radar.

Eventually it will be the Chinese hardware that we will rely on and i think that is the reason we have delayed its purchase and is waiting for it to become more mature in terms of its capability (avionics and domestic engine) before we bring it to the PAF.
