Pakistan-China Joint Air Force Exercise "Shaheen-IX 2020"

[Nomad40]

These are indeed JH-7s and this particular clip is from Shaheen VIII.
EDIT: There are no JH-7s participating this time.

It seems to be bholari

Not questioning you 'bout the JH-7's.

However, would you be knowing how many Mirage Squadrons were participating in Shaheen VIII?

The image shown has the one from the No. 8 Squadron (Haiders).

Below is a clip from Chinese State Channel CCTV7 & it show No. 25 Squadron (Eagles) during Shaheen VIII

I also found this page on Facebook with these images from Shaheen VIII and it shows 06 Mirages from No. 25 Squadron parked on the tarmac.

These shots are from Shaheen VII (apologies for typo earlier) that was held at Bholari. The shot of Mirage taking off is actually runway 04L I believe.

The latest video from the exercise.

I haven't heard any conversation relating to the JF-17B (2-seater) during the Shaheen IX. Its pretty clear that it isn't participating this year.

But I was wondering if anyone could shed some light as to why it wasn't considered when slightly older jets like F-7 & Mirage made the cut.

Obviously its still being labelled as a Trainer and not for EW, but it would have been nice to see how it could/would be utilized in a War scenario.

Tandem seaters are currently used for OCU purposes and some testing. They'll be fully functional soon.

interesting. his comments suggest that he liked the plane

I am confused now. Because people are saying J 10 C which have arrived in Pakistan are single seater. So he could have flown in J 11.

 

[Fighting Falcon 01]

Hopefully we'll get them soon these along with block 3s will be a pain in the *** for IAF ..... imagine 2× block 3s flying with 1× J10C equipped with PL 15s deadly combo

J11 probably also I feel deal is done about J10

 

[Clairvoyant]

J.10C doesnt have a dual seat version and the video doesn't show much, most likely he flew in a dual seat J.11.

ya good point ..might be J11

 

[kursed]

J-11 is the only tandem seater there, how'd he fly in the J-10C - c'mon. =) This has no bearing on what's being bought.

 

[Hakikat ve Hikmet]

Looks like these Chinese fighters are like a permanent feature in Pak!!! What a way of trolling India....

kya bought kiya hai bhai...bohut hogiya...lets reveal if really bought something ....I have a feeling about that Chinese EW craft Y-9. PAF do like to have it rather than fighter plane.

Sir, awaiting the announcement as well, on what they intend on getting. =) Chief flew in the J-11BS, though.

 

[crankthatskunk]

Few days ago, I posted a video , which claims that the deal for J 10 are done , they would be arriving in Pakistan in near future.

I was asked not to post such videos. But now some members are suggesting that the deal is done for J 10, let's hope so.
