[Pakistan media: J-10 fighter jets were deployed] The Pakistani Army spokesman confirmed that Chinese-made J-10C fighter jets were used in the retaliatory air strikes on India on Wednesday.
Pakistani Defense Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif told Bloomberg on Wednesday that Pakistan had shot down five Indian aircraft and multiple drones. These include three French Dassault Rafale aircraft, one Russian Sukhoi Su-30 aircraft, and one Russian Mikoyan MiG-29 aircraft.
This achievement is not only a strong proof of the capabilities of the J-10C fighter jets themselves but also marks an important step for Chinese aviation equipment on the international military stage, showcasing the reliability and advancement of "Made in China" to the world.
The J-10C is a domestically developed supersonic multirole fighter jet in China, equipped with advanced avionics systems and various advanced onboard weapons, capable of medium and close-range air dominance as well as precise strikes on ground and sea targets. Pakistan began to introduce them in batches from 2022. According to the International Institute for Strategic Studies headquartered in London, Pakistan has at least 20 J-10 fighters. The arrival of these fighters significantly enhances the combat strength of the Pakistani Air Force.
However, the J-10C is just an export model. The fifth-generation fighters deployed by the Chinese army, the J-20 and J-35, represent the top level worldwide. The J-20 features high stealth, high situational awareness, and high maneuverability. Its advanced avionics system and powerful weapon load capacity enable it to play a significant role in air combat and land-sea strikes; the J-35 also performs excellently in terms of stealth performance, avionics systems, and multipurpose combat capabilities, providing solid support for the modernization of the Chinese Air Force and demonstrating China's profound technical accumulation and strong R&D capabilities in the aviation field.
