We really need to place order for 50 of these birds to retire the F16 sell them to another nation

Interesting
Indonesia are turning from kfx to fc31
pakistan seems turning from fc31 to tfx

Any rumors in Indonesian circles about such a shift?
And as far as Pakistan is concerned, they seem to be looking to calculate their resources. Key would be technology transfers, financing etc before a decision is made. Plus, with J 31 having a 50/50 chance of getting inducted in PLAAF or PLANAF, PAF would want to see them commiting before she does.

No and unlikely to be heard from for the next 5 years. Remember this is a new generation plane with unknown problems and teething troubles. PAF will probably not look at induction till PLAAF/ PLAN gives the go ahead to it indicating money for its development.

ok sir . can i ask you another question? how if plaaf does not approve it then how paf will get its fifth gen bird?

 

[Trango Towers]

Not sure why we are not the first nation to purchase this beside China his is perfect 5th generation platform for our Airforce's 50-60 Front Line Fighter program

We should get 100-120 5th Generation crafts and donate all F16 to Palestinians

Palestinians....Oh God

J31 will then remain a prototype and PAF will buy the J20 or wait for the Turkish platform. Have you not heard that PAF high ups are already hinting towards that.

No money no honey only applies in brothels.
This is Pakistan and PAF knows what it's doing.
Jumping up and down doesn't help. None of us really know what the actual problems faced by PAF. Maybe j31 isn't as capable as stated. Maybe it needs time to develop. Is it really a a fighter than can take on the best out there and win. Stealth is a word thrown about liberally these days. F117a was a stealth fighter bomber. Where is it now? Short life.

There is a rumour in their forum that China's Navy will go for J-20 (H Variant) for their land based 5th Gen Stealth Fighter, and FC-31 for their Aircraft Carrier based 5th Gen Stealth Fighter.
