PAF J-35AE - News, Updates and Discussions

[Deino]

What is that logo on the tai? Doesn't resemble AVIC's, even when flipped. I might be wrong though.

You are correct, that IMO is the only suspicious detail

Lol - nothing suspicuous there:
Ebay Get a discount on quantity... hopefully AVIC does that for PAF as well.

Regardless of the authenticity of this account—and regardless of the veracity of this specific piece of news...... The PAF and official Pakistani authorities have, on far too many occasions, relied excessively on this style of communication—employing "future-tense" phrasing and language centered on "possibilities."

However, after such an approach has been overused repeatedly and over a prolonged period, it ceases to be effective. Ultimately, people care only about the final outcome.

I choose not to share the details of my in-depth analysis regarding this issue—for the process itself is simply too stark and brutal in its realism.

For now, let us wait patiently for the official briefing on the results of Prime Minister Sharif's visit to China. That document may well address the very issues that are truly of concern to everyone.

lets be a realistic here, pakistan will get the j-35 but when is a differant matter. getting it earlier will push india into the f-35 or su-57 dual seater, the latter being more realistic.

let more rafales come in which will be matched with more j10's and then go from there.

Thus spoke the mystery man ...does Sharif has to sign the document of fidelity to china to get J 35?

Why specifically the Su-56 dual seater?

 

[Mohid Afzal]

Why specifically the Su-56 dual seater?

Because of their requirement. India was going to develop a twin seat variant of the Su-57 under FGFA prior to ending the contract with Russia.

 

[Hussain]

Unless we see new HAS and infrastructure tenders to accommodate twin engine planes which we have no experience of operating since F6s retired .

F6 were retired in 2002, A5-Fantan was retired in 2011, I think, but twin engine aircraft increase maintenance/logistical costs, otherwise no issues.

Sorry my point was that J35 will need much bigger HAS and specialized environmental control facilities and maintenance hangers and we have yet to see anything being built.

There is Not the developed ecosystem to go straight to 5th gen. What are pilots supposed to transition from or train on to build experience F7s or K8s ? Theres an advanced trainer requirement you can’t fly on a legacy fighter and expect to transition to 5th gen. It’s a completely different beast

How are the two Airforces, USAF and China transitioning their pilots from 4th Gen to 5th Gen?

Trainers are good, but do you really have the time and funds to obtain a dedicated trainer suited for 5th Gen?

J-10CEs pilots didn't get them either.

And you can always seek training support from the Chinese. Train your initial pilots over there, build up the skills, use simulators and then let them fly solo.
