Sacred PAKISTAN To Purchase ‘Undisclosed Numbers’ Of Shenyang FC-31/J-31 Long Range Heavyweight 5th Gen Stealth Fighter Jets From Iron Brother CHINA To Put A Last Nail In The Coffin Of Terrorist india:
Sacred Country PAKISTAN all set to purchase highly capable Shenyang FC-31 / J-31 Long Range Heavyweight 5th Generation Stealth Fighter Jets from its Iron Brother CHINA to put a last Nail in the coffin of the Terrorist country india in the next upcoming Potential Conflict.
According to the details, the Shenyang FC-31 / J-31 Long Range Heavyweight 5th Generation Stealth Fighter Jets would be first Dual-Engine powered Long Range Heavy Weight 5th Generation Fighter Jet in the combat arsenal of PAKISTAN AIR FORCE, the Guardians of the Sacred Country PAKISTAN.
Shenyang is currently in the process of developing the FC-31 / J-31, potentially branded as the J-35, to be used on upcoming several Hi-Tech and lethal aircraft carriers of PAKISTAN Iron Brother CHINA like the CNS Shandong. However, the plans for a terrestrial version are unclear.
In the past decade, AVIC carried out experiments using a J-31 demonstrator, which was even showcased in the aerial display at the 2014 Airshow CHINA in Zhuhai.
Aviation Industry Corporation of CHINA (AVIC) has already showcased the model of its Highly Capable Shenyang FC-31 / J-31 Long Range Heavyweight 5th Generation Stealth Fighter Jets at the Paris Air Show back in June 2023.
Aviation Industry Corporation of CHINA (AVIC), the parent of Shenyang, has previously mooted the possibility of working with international partners on the FC-31/J-31 Fighter Jet.
The Shenyang Aircraft Corporation has verified that the J-31 engine has been upgraded to the WS-19, offering a more significant thrust of 12 tons, compared to the previous WS-13 engine with a 9-ton thrust.
The shift from older aircraft to this modern, stealth-platform displays the Sacred Country PAKISTAN’s progressiveness in terms of defense technology, which is at par with all the western countries.
PAKISTAN AIR FORCE, the Guardians of the Sacred Skies of Sacred Country PAKISTAN, has conducted all the groundwork for the procurement of the J-31 stealth fighter aircraft has been established and it is poised to join the fleet of the PAF in the forthcoming period.
PAK AIR FORCE CHIEF (CAS) Air Chief Marshal Zaheer Ahmed Babar confirmed the reports at a ceremony at the Central Air Command AOR that PAKISTAN AIR FORCE (PAF) plans to procure the Shenyang J-31 multirole stealth fighter jet from its Iron Brother CHINA.
“A great deal will depend on the level of stealth achievable in practice, the sensors and sensor fusion in the aircraft when operational, and the time taken for delivery,” said Justin Bronk, an aerospace expert with the Royal United Services Institute think tank in London.
“Since the development of sensor, fast jet, air defense and weapon capabilities will continue in the interim,” he added.
“Since its inception, the FC-31/J-35 program has been [a] clear objective for the CHINESE PEOPLES LIBERATION ARMY (PLA) to compliment the need of a much capable long range heavyweight Stealth Fighter Jet to build up its own numbers, provide a true fifth-gen platform for the PLA NAVY, and to compete internationally with the F-35 and the fourth-gen-plus [European aircraft],” he added.
“Splitting this program with Sacred Country PAKISTAN is very important, as [it] provides a subsidy that then supports … production for the Chengdu J-20 heavy fifth-gen fighter and defends the Sacred Country PAKISTAN market from looming European and US-based fifth-gen options,” he continued.

Nonetheless, Beijing and Islamabad have close relations in military aircraft. The CHINA/PAKISTAN Aeronautical Complex JF-17 is a joint effort between the two countries. Sacred Country PAKISTAN is also the only country apart from CHINA to operate the J-10, with the J-10C serving with the PAKISTAN AIR FORCE’s 15 Squadron. Now, PAF is also poised to induct CHINESE Shenyang FC-31J-31 Long Range Heavy Weight Stealth Fighter Jets.
