Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

Iran would like to integrate its own weapons in JF-17. They don’t want off the shelf option.
That would be subject to approval by both China and Pakistan. Also, I don't think they'll acquire JF-17. It will require political concessions from Iran.
 
China might rival the US. in tech and trade, but in geopolitics? They’re still in diapers. Favoring the Arabs over Iran only proves how clueless they are on the long game. This is why they can never be a true power and will eventually kneel to the US.
What directly unconnected with Iran, if Saudis are going to betray the Chinese agreement, it will increase importance of Iran for China...in other case, Trump's accords are not substantially important...anyway, Iran should follow the situation and get a better idea of what the main 2 powers are going to try...
 
Zionia, the child killing regime, suffered at least 6 billion USD damage and it could reach 20 billion USD damage when calculating indirect costs.
 
Just acquiring JC-10C or even J-35s will not suffice, Iran will have to invest heavily in the whole Chinese eco-system, AWACS, Satellite hookup, AD, EW platforms, etc.

I highly doubt US/Israel will allow this build up to occur without attacking it preemptively or threatening China with sanctions or other coercions.
China is entrenched in the Western economies and Chinese firms operate Israel's Haifa and Ashdod ports. It will therefore not be sanctioned, and Chinese also do not take well coercion.

I agree that Iran would need to heavily invest in the Chinese ecosystem. But that's just half the requirement. It will need to make commitments and concessions to China, including not sabotaging the Gwardar/CPEC hands-in with India/RAW, and perhaps even shifting Chabahar partnership to China.
