PAF J-35AE - News, Updates and Discussions

[MasterChief]

What are the chances we see the J-35AE on August 14?

Someone came out of a test in school and when asked how it was he answered it is either 100/100 marks or zero/100. Thats the answer here.... impossible is nothing !

This is fairly close to the actual situation.

The J-10C still has capabilities and growth not fully maximized by PAF just yet.
And for that the network is being worked on but more importantly with the new warfighting changes a lot is happening on the loitering and mass swarm front. Both to send swarms and to counter them.

That is the priority.

one isnt aware of the j10's true capabilities, but if it has the ability to manipulate airborne munitions then that is a stepping stone to 5th and 6th gen fighters, maybe even work with loyal wingman aircraft like the Kızılelma to stand on the frontline to shoot and scoot bvraam's.

kinda what happened in may 2025 where the dark j10's fired the pl-15 whilst being guided by awacs and or other j10's further back.

but back to the j35..... no chance in seeing it for 5 years.

more j10's will come in to replace/compliment the mirages but will have a broader area of capability being air to surface and air to air, mirages were mainly air to surface.

the j35 will be seen as a successor to the f16 in my opinion.
