In all honesty, at least enjoy the 10C news. You were fed they were coming with a inferior engine, arms and inferior weapons package and was without IRST.

None of that was true.

Within last two years we have seen:


Xxxxxx (as yet unrevealed PAF update), HQ-9P, updated SPJ for JF, JFB3, J10C, VT4, WL2, TB2, CH4B, M109A Arty, SH-15Arty, Mi-35Ms, Fatah-1, TPS-77MRR, Harbah, Type 54AP, updated Agosta 90Bs.

PN has gone from simply fielding tactical datalinks to now fielding real-time data networks via ADVENT, ATR-72 Sea Eagle, and now Sea Sultan, YLC-18, Kornet E, Ly-80, 3 new ERIEYES, REK 3, CM401. Next Gen ESM for PN ships. Hangor, Babar class corvettes, Jinnah Class FFGs, and at least 5-6 other programs in the works.


And we keep asking what’s new… getting spoilt are we? As a 80s kid, growing up in the 90s, these are the biggest updates at least I’ve seen in my lifetime. Learn to enjoy too folks!

100% sure. There are no twin engine jets coming. Sorry but this is just a rumor by someone who doesn’t understand PAF.

So, My Dear Sir! You are close to PAF and understands well?

 

[MH.Yang]

Please don’t start a flanker rumor after this. There are no twin engine jets coming. Period.

How about this flanker rumor:
Pakistan will buy 24 second-hand Su-35 from China. These Su-35 are purchased by China from Russia and delivered in 2018. China has refitted these Su-35. These Su-35 add AESA and stealth coating, and can use PL15.

J10 CP Total number for Pakistan 3 Sqn as per 92 news... 5.14 to...... Link is as under.....

You can be certain that China/PLAAF are going to take a great deal of interest on the feedback they'll get from the PAF on the F-16's vs. the J-10's once the 23rd Parade is over & our boys can get down to pushing the J-10 to its limit.

No. I just prefer seeing where they’re spending money vs not. A twin engine jet comes with infrastructure costs that PAF can ill afford at present. They’ve to perform upgrades elsewhere. It’s simple maths.

@Trailer23 Is this the Image you had? IRST confirmed as well. Atleast for those who were asking

 

[SQ8]

How about starting an Indus Viper rumor?

Ill do it -
Everything including funds exists except the DSCA notices and approval. It really is up to Pakistan to pull that trigger and see where it goes. Even the config has been pretty much decided including 120C-8s and 9Xs.

18 new builds(options for X more) with upgrades for Block-52 fleet as part of package.
Unit price is slightly more as offered to Bahrian due to additional systems and twice the normal spares.

New fighter for PAF Doctrine?

If the UK cannot afford to upgrade and maintain them - then how can PAF afford to do so. There is a reason why these airframes are being decomissioned with half their life still left !!! The only way these are can be relevant if he we get them along with other trench1 very cheap and able to...

Heartbreak Hotel - thanks a lot.

Heartbreak Hotel - thanks a lot.

The real kicker is - is it a rumor?

 

[The Eagle]

My intention was to point out that we shouldn't judge people like they don't understand PAF. I agree that there are people with good analytical skills even living in Canada but then, there are people living within the proximity but can't say a word. I have no other interest but lest not judge the people.

Sorry but this is just a rumor by someone who doesn’t understand PAF.

By the way, I missed that someone who said it before? Can you or @Zarvan point to the source.

Got this clip from a youtube video. J-10C has single touch-screen display like F-35.

I've been hearing viper whispers on other forums. It's hard to believe what's true and what's not.

I was wondering if the avionics core between the JF17 Block III and J10C have become merged for the MMI and that the JF17 Block III is from an electronic perspective, now, a baby J10C with integrated links that allow for more sophisticated hybrid offensive mixed formations of JF17 Block III's and J10Cs. I would not be suprised if the above picture is also similar to how the JF17 Block III cockpit will look. ( All speculation - but to me the software is the most interesting part of this - the original JF17 Block III MMI was derived from the J10 series - so they are related to each other like siblings - also - i wonder if the PAF has gotten more of the hardpoints to become smarter - lets see ).

This new block of J10C would be the basis of future PLAAF procurements - ensuring compatability between the PLAAF and PAF fleets.
