Pakistan's Airborne Early Warning and Control Aircrafts

[wangrong]

Well on Chinese side, i believe the Manufacturer did invest money, wasn't it a 50-50 project by PAC & the Chengdu Aircraft Manufacturing (something like that).

So in anyway it is a Chinese State owned company, shouldn't be a big problem. It would be a great treat to watch FC-1 in PLAAF formations. Plus if PLAAF did buy it, the export prospects would get a healthy boost.

1、Yse,the CAC did invest money(50% of JF-17 project), But PLAAF

have not invested 1 cent in JF-17 project.

2、the CAC has already become a listed company

a listed company shall be accountable to all shareholders.

3、if PLAAF want to order JF-17,please increase price

Hmmm, well if they plan for a good number of FC-1s, may be the price will go down much more as i believe PAF is getting somewhere 20-25MUS$ a piece, and if more orders come, price will definitely drop more.

i think PLAAF will buy more J10 rather than buying JF17 because they are more advanced

i think PAF's JF-17 about 12-18MUS$,other Country‘s JF-17 about

18-23MUS$

bcz:1、PAF did invest money,so cheaper than other Country
2、J10A about 30MUS$,J10B about 40-45MUS$
3、different edition, different price (JF-17)

PLAAF is still using fighters inferior to JF-17. There is no reason why PLAAF should not be interested in JF-17. It would be a better option to replace some of their J-7 fighters.

The suggestion of replacing of all the fleet of J-7s, Q-5s different variants with J-10A/B seems unsound financially nonviable for PLAAF
You just cannot expect PLAAF to replace 900-950 of J-7/Q-5s with J-10s alone, J-17 is going through weapons testing phase and we know Chinese weapons have been and are being used, the collaboration on this project is equal i believe China will induct 400 J-17s if not more. back to AWACS/AEW&Cs topic

guys i think you are deviating from the topic

J7/J8/A5

A-5 i believe are being modified too for precision strike role and i believe a tandem seat version has also taken to the sky and replacement would be JH-7A, wouldn't it be??

Yes the J-7 around approx 500 or so need to be replaced, FC-1 is the best option, will be a good combination with J-10s, Su-30s/27s & J-11s.

J-8 may be replaced by the Su/J-11 series fighters.

Sometimes little deviating is good as the thread has seen a lot of discussion on the subject and now not much of info is available till some new news come to light.

but Govt should still be the dominant shareholder and holding BoD.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1、A-5 are being modified to for precision strike role ，but they only to satisfy "Low intensity war “



2、double seat version is A5's ”Trainer aircraft “



3、PLAAF is satisfied with the JH7A's Attack capability （air to sea and air to ground),so PLAAF order only 100 su30MKK
