The news was circulating when the L-15s were seen flying from Karachi to Islamabad and then on to Dubai. Furthermore it's said they would be stopping in Pakistan during their return flight.

Breaking : CATIC has confirmed to correspondents during Dubai Air Show 2023 that Pakistan is in formal negotiations for acquisition of L-15 LIFT fighters to replace its aging F-7PG fighters which are currently used to carry out Operational Conversion of PAF Pilots.

They flew from Nur Khan to Masroor, and not the other way around.
They are meant for UAEAF and won't be coming back. :)

The two seen in OP were captured in the morning flying out of Karachi and by midday guys were reporting seen them landing at Nur Khan.
@Trailer23 mentioned that they will be stopping back in Pakistan.
Surely the display como Is not for UAEAF.

Is a LIFT aircraft purely for training or can it serve a military purpose and carry missiles etc

Unsure why the delay existed just a trainer could have ordered 18-36 trainers
long time ago Proactively instead of waiting endlessly till it is a "Must"

It seems delayed decision was hasted by recent outcomes in current year with loss of F7 trainers

Trainer and Attack aircraft.


"The Hongdu L-15 comprises six hard points of which four are located under the two wings and two under the wing-tips. It can accommodate 3,000kg of payload. The aircraft can carry short range air-to-air missiles, air-to-ground missiles, bombs and rocket pods."

Edit : The two aircraft in Dubai are meant for the UAEAF.
However, the main fact is that PAF is in negotiation with CATIC to purchase the L-15 supersonic jets.
