so what, Mirages from Egypt are basically for spares for our Mirages and F-16-block-70/72 will come with AMRAAM C-7 which have better range then Meteor that india is getting with RAFALE, and projected F-16 block 72 is on the par with RAFALE (comparable to RAFALE ) @Syed1.

I highly doubt we would be receiving f16 block 72 with AMRAAM C7, even getting more block 52 is a long dream for Paf. The only realistic option we have is JF17 block 3 or J20. J31 and TFX are decade away. From 2020 Iaf with Rafael will have a clear edge. We have to accept that.

What about Pl-15 is it a myth or reality?

As per @Khafee the deal almost done we will receiving F-16 Block- 72 in the time frame of 2022-2024 everything is possible and USA need Pakistan to get out from Afghanistan and also USA want balance in between India and Pakistan So other then F-16 what OTHER OPTIONS lefts for Pakistan as stop gap measures (i am not talking about to get 5th gen jets) EF-2000 EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE (150+ million $$ per jet), Grippen Sweden denying us, Su-35 just forget it we just started our warm relation with Russia its takes time to develop a trust between Russia and Pakistan and remember Indian lobby in Russia doma, India still a one of the biggest arm importer for Russia, there are lots of JV military project are running between India/Russia

In my opinions we have 2 options lefts on the table either we can go J-10C which PAF already rejected because JF-17 block-3 will tech from J-10C so both have same tech/capability with exception of Range and Payloads,

and 2nd option is we will go for MIG-35 From Russia it has cheaper price tag then Su-35 and Ease of maintenance, remember MIG-35 using RD-33MK engines and RD-93 is based on RD-33 series of engine,

and as for your J-20 dream, we will not able to get by any J-20 nowhere in near or in far future BECAUSE J-20 is ban for export according to Chinese govt LAWS, JUST LIKE USAF F-22 @PakAlp

No , we just started our warm relation with Russia its takes time gain a trust between the 2 countries, more Probable option is Mig-35, how about that sir @Super Falcon
