[Be dazzled]

J10CE doesn't have MB ejection seat. Ty5/7 series is on par or better in overall performance.

Take off run seems really short, a function of that delta wing and canards I guess.

PAF marketing of J-10 has worked. China owes Pakistan royalties...

Was it that exercise where the J16D completely crushed the China-Pakistan joint team? I heard that in one battle, the J10C sacrificed itself to create an opportunity for the JF17 to take down the J16D. But it was just a J16D simulator, not a fully operational J16D.

Jokes aside, I can see a legitimate use case for the J-16 in limited numbers, particularly for the PAF in long range strike and maritime support missions alongside the Pakistan Navy. That said, would China even be willing to export it, and could Russia create complications because of the aircraft’s Su-27 lineage and intellectual property history?

The bigger question is affordability. Pakistan’s economy is already under considerable pressure, while the PAF also wants to induct fifth generation fighters such as the J-35 and potentially KAAN. Would there realistically be enough money to acquire and sustain all these different platforms, along with their weapons, training, infrastructure, and maintenance requirements? Even if the J-16 is available, would introducing another small fleet be a wise investment, or would that money be better spent expanding and improving the J-10CE and JF-17 fleets?
