Chinese state TV has broadcast a program highlighting China’s advanced fighter jet’s origins and accomplishments, following Pakistan’s successful deployment of the J-10C.
According to the documentary, Pakistan used this aircraft to shoot down Indian fighter jets during the recent tensions between India and Pakistan.
The video was shown on China’s state-run CCTV at a time when the Indian Air Force and Pakistan Air Force engaged in a dogfight on May 7 in which the Pakistan Air Force destroyed three Indian Rafale jets and other fighter planes using J-10C aircraft.
The J-10CE, an export variant of the J-10C, “recently shot down foreign aircraft in a real battle, and this is the first combat success of this aircraft,” according to a Chinese TV military report on Saturday.
