J-10 will be used as an air defense fighter while the Su-30MK2 will be a strike fighter.

The single-engined J-10A is more suitable for dogfighting, not heavy bombing.

Chaves is one of China's best buddy, we need to offer them the help as much as possible.

CCP should make sure that Venezuela won't fall as the next victim of the Western Imperialists.

The good thing is that they already ordered the first batch of Su-35 flanker, with the extra gift like J-10. I think they will be fine with their current air defence.

Su-30MK2 can attack enemy ships. The J-10As will be fore aerial defense. It is a good and economic combination.
