There are multiple reasons

1) Currently, FC-1 is using Russian RD-93 but soon would be replaced by Chinese WS-13 which means Russia would no longer make money from this program. India by joining the program could procure FC-1 with RD-33 engines instead which are also used by Indian MIG-29s. This will help Russians, Chinese and Indians

2) IK/PA are pro US. So going forward Pakistan would start procuring US fighters as procuring JF-17 with Russian engines could result in CAATSA sanctions on Pakistan. India would fill the vacuum created by Pakistani orders. Again will help Russians, Chinese and Indians

3) If India gets sanctioned then Tejas goes kaput due to use of US engine. FC-1 with RD-33 engine would act as a backup.

Pakistan cannot stop it. Only China and Russia can as they have the technology. China could sell FC-1 as RIC-1 (Russia-China-India) to India. Pakistan can do nothing to stop if a new name is adopted.

What about J-10C?

As long as the Engine is Russian and Avionics are from Israel and fuselage fits the requirements & definition of light weight fighter.

Pakistan is a 50/50 partner in FC-1 project @SuvarnaTeja

It won't be FC-1 but RIC-1. So Pakistan may be able to stop FC-1 but not RIC-1. All China have to do is change the name and sell it to India.

Ther is no RIC-1 stop spreading false speculations of yours @SuvarnaTeja

All China have to do is change the name and sell it to India.

we also have design and development rights, not possible @SuvarnaTeja

Of course there is no RIC-1 today but it would be born if India chooses to buy and China chooses to sell. This will go a long way in building trust between India & China.

India-China bhai-bhai

Pakistan's rights are limited to FC-1/JF-17 only. You cannot claim rights on other Chinese fighters.

before you return AP and sign a peace treaty with Pakistan, there wont be any military deal with India. we wont sell brother going thick and thin together. money cant buy anything, especially trust.
