Ma Zhiping said China plans to sell 300 of this multi-role aircraft in the next five years to the Middle East and Africa. The price of Chinese cooperation with Pakistan to build fighter, much lower than the Western or Russian production aircraft of similar capacity.

One of JF-17 priced at about $ 30 million, and its performance is closer to Boeing's F-15 Strike Eagle fighter, while the latter costs about $ 100 million.

CATIC also believe that the company has the ability to open the market for L-15 twin-engine light attack aircraft, this aircraft also as a senior trainer, production and sales. Ma Zhiping said, there are already six countries were tested on L-15, he expected that the L-15 will be held this year for the first time exported overseas. He said: "We will get an international agreement."

:pakistan::china::cheers:
 
either it's marketing talk or a honest mistake, it's most likely he meant the f-16
 
China could sell to Countries like Egypt who needs to modernize the Air force, Likely, Egypt, Sudan, Lebanon, first three likely.

If these nations need to incorporate with the AESA feature, so they can immediately receive an upgrade for the basic block I model. :coffee:

Currently now Egypt is moving away from the USA to a more neutral policy china should take this chanceto get influence in Egypt, Sudan and China has strong relations same with Lebanon anyway whats the Price of a Jf-17 Block 2 with AESA ?
 
It is estimated to be around 25-30 million per unit.

Yes I've also heard of a Jf-17 block 3 upgraded version any word on this ? anyway is the Jf-17 powered by Russian Engines or WS-10 ? China was reported to be in deals with Countries like Azerbaijan, Sudan and others still no word ?

The block 1 now uses the Russian RD-93 (an upgrade variant of RD-33 for Mig-29) engine, but the block 2 will use the WS-13 engine, a midthrust engine.

Because the WS-10 engine is too big to be fit into a smaller aircraft like JF-17, not sure what engine the block 3 will use, but definitely not the Russian engine.

China won't make any deal to sell JF-17 before it is still relying on the Russian engine.

Likely see Block 2 and 3 being sold Africa and Middle East how about countries in South America ? or to Malaysia and Indonesia also Cambodia and Laos can have it due to their close relations with china.

Let Pakistan to promote these aircrafts into the market of the Middle East first, even to the Southeast Asian Muslims nation like Malaysia and Indonesisa, this will be easier than China to promote it by herself.

Now we have J-10B, it won't be easier for J-10A to make its way since people want the latest model.

But J-10B is our top notch 4.5 gen fighter so far, the latest model contains an uber powerful engine and AESA, also some advanced stealth features, so we don't want to export this one too early, maybe around 2015 when J-20 starts to become operational.
