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

4.5, even 5th gen are legacy platforms.
Platforms leveraging ultra AI frontier AI models are there and actually becoming legacy.
What is required.
4.5 gen has to be equipped with AI decision making orchestration--> that will make them 6+ gen minus stealth.
6gen platform will/are being designed from ground up using advanced RL, NN based mini LLM, RTOS clusters, PQC.

as Pakistan and 3rd world countries don't have mind capability and assets in advanced frontier AI models development and research, they need to learn to apply what's out there for both offensive/defensive actions.

AI has made things very dangerous and scary, but that's another problem.

Thats why its time to slowly ditch US military equipment.

Its a common sense analysis when Block 70/72 and V-upgrades are not in inventory and the only top notch F-16 variant in PAF service is Block 52+.

Even the latest F16 variants can't match china in BVR range.

Integrated battlefield with force multipliers works wonders for USAF i.e. F-16s with AWACs, EW platforms, and other support aircrafts. That's how USAF operates, not 1 vs 1.

That's what Chinese PLAAF does too, now China is even intensively test flying multiple 6 gen jets which are even more closely integrated in a whole system.

there is no other choice. USAF tactics are now studied everywhere.

No doubt J-10C is a viable alternative to F-16s.

The days of buying F-16s are gone now.

And I would advise not to buy F-16s anymore.
We have enough and can reverse engineer them with Chinese help with the J-10C to make our own hybrid versions. F-16s + J-10Cs.

We should invest in J-10C Transfer of Technology, and improve upon it.

Yes I know we have JF-17 Block 3, but J-10C is a medium weight fighter.

I believe the J-10C is based on the Israeli Lavi.
