J-10A will close the production line soon, some rumor said have closed or will only produce for J-10A export not PLAAF yet.
Future ChengDu will produce J-10B to replace current 200x J-10A fighters.
(2013 Thay have been producing J-10B fighters, soon we will see many J-10B fighters appear in PLAAF)

China tanker aircraft: HU-6

I have heard that HJ-6 newer version can be modified as aerial tanker, MPA, AEW&Cs, EW/ELINT/SIGNIT and as bomber.

So there might be some possibility that PAF and PN might going to buy this for fulfilling the roles of:
EW/ELINT/SIGNIT
AEW&Cs
MPAs
Tankers.

China Army WZ-10 armed helicopter pics:

Soon PAC would be making Z-10s as we are listening just some fake news about PAA getting A-129s and hopefully PAC will join with Chinese on transport helicopters too.

HJ-6 as tanker is not very efficient due to its small cargo size. But it did retain a massive advantage over other type of Tanker. Its far higher speed makes its easier to escape in hostile airspace compare to other type of tanker.

I doubt it will be soon. Probably another 3- 5 years time before PAA can gets their hand on WZ-10.

Now is not war time，and the PLA is quite stingy with investing in production facilities。

The current rate of production is 24 Z-10s，with the possibility of ramping it up to 36 per annum max。

But the PLA is aiming for 1 army aviation brigade for each of its 18 group armies。

so。。。。
