No, no, you forgot, it was the PAF that cleared that AAM for operational use so they are already operational since years way before the PLAAF got their own ones. ;)

It is actually crazy how much Pakistanis often force credit where they had close to zero participation. So many on that crazy forum in the past claimed that JF-17's cockpit was designed and engineered by Pakistanis rather than simply PAF pilots giving some basic ass inputs with their experiences. I dont want to undermine their contributions but honestly these guys claim credit where none are due.

Some guys there actually believe that J-10 represents the best fighter in PLAAF because PAF selected it and the rest are inferior because PAF have total access to PLAAF fighters. In fact they often go as far as to claim that J-10 was refined based on PAF and Pakistani inputs. Granted this is a minority of wild morons, it is worrying how stupid some humans out there can be.

Indians love that sort of thing too. I don't know what they put in the water over there in South Asia.

Just got this from a friend and I must admit, I don't remember this particular image. So if legit, it would be the first time an "old" J-10A is fitted with a grey radome and is wearing low-visibility markings!

So the question again: Is this legit or again a faked image?

Mystery solved! As expected it is a faked one again based on this very old J-10A image showing serial no. 10721!

Orca, otter, and the gay guy all confirmed the J-10C deal to Egypt. According to Otter the deal will go through unless the U.S. stops it.

Ayi also said that there is another African country which signed the purchase deal for J-10CE as well, apart from Egypt. Said country actually signed the deal before Egypt (i.e. the 1st African country to do so, Egypt being the 2nd one), but is more hesitant to pay than Egypt (但第一个国家在付款方面比埃及犹豫).

This matches what the Guancha Trios said in an early-November 2024 podcast (as a side mention of the main discussions on China's 6th-gen manned combat warplanes), i.e. "3 more foreign orders (not including Pakistan)".

Two more mystery countries...
