The way his post is worded means the picture he's responding to is the first time he's seen a PL-15 seeker. If he had seen prior images, he'd have said something like "didn't think I'd see a PL-15 seeker outside of a vault."

As I already stated, guy is a bit vague for the sake of liability, so you're entitled to interpret his words differently.

However, how do you explain the confidence and specificity of his assessment of the

?

Buddy, you obviously didn't pay attention to the war thread as it was happening. It was debunked by the Chinese side, sourcing the image to Chinese academic literature from years ago. I'm just pointing it out, in case you're unaware (which you obviously are). You're positing a contention which has already been debated and settled on this very forum. You are late to the party.

The point isn't so much where the image of the PL-15E's AESA seeker came from, but that it's already a known item to the American authorities, and how that could have possibly came about.

It was released on the public domain, for anyone to read, by the Chinese researchers. You are viewing it incorrectly. The real motive of such releases are: "here, take a good look at what we got - we've advanced far beyond this!".

Your post completely misses the point here, and I'm afraid you're bickering because you find certain realities that have been presented unpalatable.

The point is . . .

The US is in a position to exploit certain Chinese weapons systems because they make it into American hands by way of third countries, be it Pakistan, Thailand, Nigeria or another major importer of Chinese arms.

This is why there are inevitable limits to what China will and will not export to other countries, including de facto allies like Pakistan.

This doesn't mean Pakistan is "bad" or "disloyal," but when there are Pakistanis who'll

their own country to India, there'll inevitably be Pakistanis who'll betray the trust of their de facto Chinese ally.

It is what it is when you're dealing with a country of ~250 million souls.

Nothing made it into American hands. This is a picture from a set released by the Chinese. The American here seems to have convinced you, YEARS LATER, that it is they who possess the system in hand.

Your contention is exactly the same as the Indian propaganda because they are the ones who pulled out the old pictures from Chinese sources and falsely claimed it is from Op Sindoor. You are chewing it up now, four months later, smh. Like I said, late to the party.

No shit Sherlock. Nobody's expecting top-tier Chinese systems to be exported, nor does Pakistan need it considering it wrecked IAF with systems that China is probably going to phase out soon.

Let us know if it happens. Until then, it's just an Indian wet dream.

On one hand, you acknowledge the inevitable risks of unrestrained Chinese defense exports to Pakistan, as well as China's understandable need to take precautions.

Let us know if it happens. Until then, it's just an Indian wet dream.

On the other hand, you seem to believe Pakistani CI and FME threat vectors only exist in "Indian wet dreams."

Do you not see the obvious contradiction here?

Problem is in your comprehension.
Threat of leak is everywhere, even inside China. If 250m is problematic, imagine 1.4b! Moot point. Apply a double-standard here now. Either way, it's conjecture, nonexistent.

You tried to prove a point using four months old Indian propaganda. You were corrected. All you have now is conjecture and moot points to cope with.

There is no double standard here.

While the Chinese government is in a position to directly deter, investigate and prosecute CI threats within its sovereign territory occupied by its citizenry of 1.4 billion, the Chinese government does not carry the same authority over Pakistan's population of 250 million.

You can't trust what you can't control.

Either way, it's conjecture, nonexistent.

Not only are you still missing the point, but apparently very, very butthurt.

PLAAF equipment today is at least two generations ahead of J-10CE and PL-15E

No it's not.

What has happened to this thread?

 

[defenceman]

PAF really doesn't need J-35A atm when J-10C is already doing so well, handling all the top IAF a/c so effectively. PN has more need for J-35A. Also, with India cornered right now it is probably best to maintain status quo as is and not push it in any other direction than the one they're treading right now - compliance with China and BRICS + moving away from US.

Hi,
my friend you wrote the right assessment of not in need ATM, if you want them to know why not
ATM coz india is not getting any stealth at the moment not even in 2/3 years of time line J10c been
dispatched after the Rafale been landed, so no J35 ATM absolutely right another very important thing
is what’s the point of getting J10c and been shot by Rafale it means Chinese planes are junk that’s
why Pakistan specific missile Pl15 has to out reach the Meteor but of cource no one want to beat the
drum about the range of the missiles sender of the missile to Pakistan and of cource the receiver, as the
main receiver later on come to know what hit them and how far now in this post I’m not advocating about
300km or less or more but in case Of meteor in should be more and enough
on a lighter note I should write to check further range of Pl15 beyond 200km IAF should request USA for
AIM 260 JATM if not on Rafale may be for Tejas
thank you

If you think what the Chinese military-industrial complex exports and employs herself are somehow identical, then you and I are clearly not the same.

There are obvious and inevitable reasons why China needs to "hold back" on Pakistan, even if that disappoints some of our Pakistani friends.

Case in point:

From where do you think the PL-15E's AESA seeker that Americans like John Ridge got to checkout inside a SCIF came from?

In case you think he's talking hypotheticals, it's pretty obvious his grasp of the PL-15E was achieved from access to the fruits of FME (most likely by way of

You could've just wrote 'Jai-Hind' instead of going about it in such a round about way parroting disaproved Indian narratives.

Disappointed about what? 6-0? Hold back about what? Pakistan and China dont need China's best to smack India and Pakistan doesnt need anything beyond. We're not a wannabe 2020 supapower.

It's clear China's 7th or is it 8th now? or after the new UCAVs, 9th best Fighter jet can rape India's best.
