PAF pilot highlights how chinese J10C fighters has edged US F16's

[Michael]

Usually through trials, sending pilots over, sims and real time flying, and then send an EOI. In China's case, they customise the aircraft according to on needs and get a NOC for that.

In USA's case, thats for F-16 and PAF knows F-16s inside out including cost of parts which makes negotiations tough. Pakistan looks for concessions through FMS packages which reduces the price through an aid package. The lack of FMS package later on created problem for optional 18 F-16s Block 52+, then reduced to 8 F-16C Block 52+. Its the same case with AH-1Zs where Pakistan doesnt want to pay full price as the deal was under through FMS package.

Clearly, you are trying to avoid your problem by forcibly changing the subject.

Doing this has no practical significance.
