Why do you say that? J-11 has no role in PAF/PN? J-11s
until USA never stop f-16
J-11s are extensively used as Maritime MRCA in PLAN and their are plans to upgrade them to Su-33 latest technology by 2015
we all know they are best but we looking for j-10 and jf-17
upgraded J-11B with su-33 technology will be the best punch for the buck!
so what PN waiting for
PN will be facing Super Hornets and Su-30MKI in Pakistan's south air cammand. the F-16 MLU will still be based in Punjab while only one squd of new F-16s will be based in Shabaz the closest F-16s to PN support but still 300-350KM far. JF-17 is already replacing Mirage-III/IV F-7 and Q-5 in PAF south air command. only by 2012 will their be any FC-20 squadron available to PAF and that too i dough will be placed for navy support in south any time soon untill we have enough in 2016 or so. We have Chinese K-8, JF-17 and dont think their will be any problem for us to induct J-11s when we have already operated twin engine F-6 in the past
100% agree we need them but there is no news that PN will get j11?
