Fighter J10C In The Skies Now – Shaheen Ab Aasmanoon Mein Bhi Garjein Gay

Now, 25 Fighter J10 C have become a part of the Pakistan Air Force.  They have been produced with the help of China. This indeed is a new addition that will make the skies safer.

Pakistan has been upgrading its weaponry to make its defence strong. The PNS Tughril was inducted into the Pakistan Navy a while back. Now, 25 Fighter J10 C have become a part of the Pakistan Air Force.  They have been produced with the help of China. This indeed is a new addition that will make the skies safer.

Fighter J10C is cheaper and more advanced as compared to the Russian Su-35. It is more advanced in terms of aerodynamics and avionics. Su-35 relies on ‘less advanced passive electronically scanned array (PESA) radar.’

Importance of J10 C

The Chinese J-10 C Firebird fighter Jet is all set to take part in the Pakistan Day Parade. 25 of the fighter jets have been acquired.

Pakistan has been interested in the J-10 for the last decade or so. Earlier Pakistan was interested in the FC-20 export variant but couldn’t move forward with its procurement plans.

Pakistan also thought of procuring Russian Su-35 Flanker E to cover the naval operations in the Arabian Sea.

China uses ‘the earlier J-10AH and J-10SH Firebird variants from shore as multirole aircraft.’ The ones that Pakistan has acquired are the J-10CE export variant of the latest J-10C. They have more active electronically scanned array radar and long-range PL-15 air-to-air missiles.

Justin Bronk, Royal United Services Institute airspace analyst said that these fighter jets will significantly boost Pakistan’s air power. He also stated, “The J-10C is a potent modern multirole light fighter, which represents a rough Chinese equivalent to a modern F-16 Block 60/70. ″
