China Sells J-10 Fourth Generation Fighters to Pakistan

[Counter-Errorist]

My guess would be:

Most Likely - A J-10C with some minor customizations (like IFF, ejection seats) but mostly similar to the PLAAF J-10C. Think of it like J-7G and F-7PG but no radar switch and no sidewinder switch.

My hope (but unlikely to happen) is a semi-stealthy J-10D type.

From the visual reports of Karachi night-flying we're getting, seems like the J-10 is black - so likely comes with the LO coating.q

That reminds me of ACE Combat 2 Razgriz

This statement of yours defeats logic. Do feel free to let PAF planner know of your displeasure.

Dear Members
Any Guess about J10P specifications ?

Yes, single engine. Nice one too, has an afterburner!

No bisti, with you our relationship is on another level, despite our age diff. Like there are 2 or 3 people, when they call I ask them "Abhi tak zinda ho?"

I highly appreciate it sir and have very high regards for you. Thank you

Reason for 3 different type at Masroor could very likely be that as JF-17 is standard workhorse of PAF, the J-10P and J-15P ( not sure if it will be P or something else ) are Mission Specific / specialist aircraft and not the workhorse. However, if you look at the Masroor base, they will need more HAS and or Covered shelters to keep them out of harsh Sindh + Arabians Sea weather / coastal environment.

This is why Bholari will work as an extension of Masroor, or vice versa.

i guess Masroor can be dedicated to point defense and naval ops while bohlari can serve as dedicated airops base

J-10Ps are possibly the direct counter to French Rafales. As such, I imagine Pak will get 24-36 aircraft at the least. I believe in the longer term, one squadron for each of the three commands means about 54 aircraft.
