That is good for PAF and PLAAF development, I bet IAF will be keen to keep an eye on this exercise. Do we know which aircrafts are participating?

A full package of J10C, J11, Y-9G (GX-11) Electronic Warfare (AFAIK) and a AEW&C aircraft to take part in it. This is the first time that PLAAF is bringing its dedicated EW platform, outside China for an exercise.

Chinese warplanes including J-10, J-11, J-16, Su-30 fighter jets, JH-7 fighter bombers and KJ-500 early warning aircraft participated in the last year exercises.

When will this exercise commence? How long will it last? Good news, just to give India some sleepless nights. After all their homegrown conspiracy theory for 2 front war might come true.

BEIJING, Dec.7 -- The Chinese air force’s troops set off on Dec. 7 for the Pakistani Air Force’s air base in Bholari at Thatta District in Sindh, northeast of Pakistan’s Karachi to participate in the China-Pakistan Joint Air Force Exercise "Shaheen (Eagle) - IX".

The joint air force exercise, which will conclude in late December, is a project within the 2020 cooperation plan of the two militaries. It will promote the development of China-Pakistan mil-to-mil relationships, deepen practical cooperation between the two air forces, and improve the actual-combat training level of the two sides.

Good practice to experience to deal with planes IAF is having in its inventory.

Bholari only houses F-16's from No. 19 Squadron (Sherdils).

Too bad they won't be part of the exercise.
