@Khafee Sahib, kindly end this suspense. Have a pity on the rest of us and share the info.

Do we really want to introduce J20 and make it easy for India to obtain F35?

F- 35 already on offer to India recall the sales pitch of LM to India for F-21 that it have DNA F -35 and would help India to move to 5th gen F-35 early.

If I m not wrong LM has already enlisted India as potential customer for F-35.

Therefore introduction of any 5th gen be J-35 in PAF will force India to go for F-35, but it will favour us if we only announce induction of any Chinese 5th gen before the induction of S-400 in India it will force them either to drop S-400 infovour of F-35 or drop F-35.

But I agree in general that J-20 is not avaliable

@Khafee sir how about a mix of F/J-16? ? (F16 as many as CFS money can buy and at least 18 Js)

 

[Khafee]

How many ?

36 new IA

Approx 24 units

One thing that can be openly disclosed for now, is that it will be tailor made for PAF, so Avionics, EW, Engine will all be better than what PLAAF flies right now.

It's the EW suite in the New Vipers that intrigues vis-a vis Rafale. Also the weaponry these Vipers can bring along with them.

It is already present in the Blk62

A fighter based on carrier version. So Basically a SU-33 derivative ? There has to be something different in air frame.
