3 or 4 years back in an interview former def minster said pak was looking for a newer trainer jet,some days later he stated after coming back from a meeting with Chinese delegation, saying L15 was in talks.
Lets be clear on LIFT aircraft
Pak AF really needs a advanced trainer aircraft
At the moment to become a fighter pilot in af you have to go through,mushak then to t-37/k-8 and then the pilot is sent to fighter conversion unit and trains on the FT-7 then from there to their respective squadrons.
So our current advanced trainer is actually a fighter aircraft which is well not wrong but not very modern as per todays aspect.
Our first LIFT aircraft were FT-5 and FT-6,inducted back in 1955 and served till 2012 when they were replaced by F-7s and K-8p

A newer gen flexible trainer aircraft like M-346 or Yak 130 is the need of the hour.
yak-130 seem very promising.specially if we can get our hands on the engines and use them for future

How you can invest two different fifth generation fighter with 10 billion dollar defence budget.

Here is the answer to it. There is huge military industrial complex run by Pak army, you can add commercial enterprises as well, they provide a huge amount to the army to use it for the welfare of the army men and utilize the budget for arms and development and not on salaries and pensions...

SU35 I am not sure because of many statements which surfaced in past few months along with positive statement, so lets wait until the deal is inked or a clear rejection comes from Russia.

About YAK130, whats so good about them that PAF is showing interest in them?

20 MI35 is a good number for PD if true, but still little more a needed to fill the gap.

RD93 news is true.

PAF is trying to consolidate it's training planes and they might want YAK-130 in big #s.

ACM Sohail Aman has already stated in a recent interview that we are not looking for foreign aircraft for LIFT. Dual seat JF-17's will start becoming available in a few months time which will fulfill this requirement.

Dont exclude chinise LIFT'S, keep all options open.Infact Chinise are strategically extremelly important factor, for both of our nations

This might be combined offer (Su-35 + YAK-130) from Russia to Pakistan, but nothing is confirmed until they sign the contract.

Don't forget about other options....

He is the same guy who told me about SU-35 and Euro Fighter and after two days it was in news and PAF told senate after two days that they were going for one of these two jets so I know few people
well, for that make a budget at least . Moro ever that so called single Engine 5th gen Plane any prototype made or still on paper....

if it on paper then it take 10 yrs more ... BTW what happened to your Chinese 5th gen planes and dual engine planes?

last time i get the news that PAK trying to set up Russian engine repair facility , Did you get Russian approval yet??

It is for sure. The rafale deal was a big shock for Russia because India preferred rafale on Su-35,37 platform....
Now its Russia's keen to sell weapons to Pakistan. And Su-35 will be a game changer.
