the way i see it China does not want to share the secrets of j-10. hence they come up with jf-17 which is watered down aircraft. it works for pakistan because it replaces a lot of old platforms - j-7, q-5, mirage iii and mirage-5. it helps pakistan in building their aircraft.
at $20 million cost price the profit has to be quite slim
It wont be that low with a full weapons package and training
Even if say Argentina buys the plane Pakistan as the major user will be heavily involved in the training
never heard this before....
Look through the JF17 thread
