China tests J-10C with PL-17 missile for long-range combat​

Not a credible source imo

I have also read articles that mention PL17 can be carried in internal weapons
bay of J35.

And based on recent discussions it was a wrong conclusion! It was not a PL-17 but "just" a DF-4 pylon adaptor. Again, Bulgarian-BS is a crappy site and no source worth to be read or even quoted!

Yes, and I have read articles claiming there is intelligent life on Venus! How on earth could this monster fit into a weapon's bay just as large as the J-20's bay when not even the J-20 can carry the PL-17 internally?

I do not shoot you, but I think thsi need to be made clear since such stupd claims based on stupid sites' reports are circulating since weeks similar to this BS, Pakistan might get their J-35As together with PL-17s in August!

Hi,

And when I came to the US in early 80's---I hit the jackpot---THRIFT STORES---where you could go to the book section and buy many a recent used books or well read books just for 25 cent, 50 cents and in the 90's for a dollar---.

It was a book lover's heaven---.

Hi,

And then I found the city library---did I forget to mention that---.

As a mud pit is to a pig---a library held the same place for me---.

Now I got to read for free the latest books that I wanted to by the top authors on my list---and if the library did not have that book---I could order a new one or they would request another library to send one over---and all that---it was without cost---.

 

[MastanKhan]

Tagging Deino was a joke.

I also doubt some of reports as there is no urgency as PAF literally grounded IAF and shot down 5 or even 6 of Indian aircrafts. Pakistan is likely thinking of filling gaps in AD in short term.

Hi,

If the scenario was between Paf and Iaf---then I would say that he FC31 is not needed---. The current air superiority fore is enough to do the job---.

Can you imagine---with 20 J10 CE's and some odd 30 JF17 BLK3 with superior weaponry have grounded 500 indian aircraft---.

Now---do pakistanis understand why NO MUSLIM country can fight Israel at this time---. The answer is in front of the faces of the pakistanis---and still they don't understand---. It is because a lack of capable weapons---.

Israel will decimate any arab air force at this time---.

You are just being cautious Deino. By the way, Chinese accounts on X seem to know you. Have a look at the comments - someone mentioned you. Apparently integration of PL-17 on J-10 has been DONE!

Hi,

He is not cautious---he just simply does not know---. He is waiting for someone to confirm it with proof---.

OG poster of the first production J-35A insists it is not for Pakistan.

So J-35 production has started?

 

[iblini]

For me its the PLAAF. I find it strange for a foreign country to operate the J35 before China does.

Both airforce and navy are eagerly waiting, plus according to credible account on weibo, first overseas customer is most likely some Gulf countries, but he did said PAF is in top 3 list of getting the plane, so much info is going on.

As mentioned on SDF, I’ll reiterate here that despite various claims, the J-35A is still a few years away from appearing in PAF colors.

Hi,

FC31 was primarily built for pakistan to be the first customer---.
