Some people are anxious to find out the outcome of the exercise, and most of the answers will be rumours. In fact, it's actually a good thing to get your *** kicked in these kind of complex mock scenarios. Getting slapped around means you find out where the strengths of your potential foes and your own shortcomings are. From that knowledge you can develop tactics to bride the gap as much as possible.

There is no shame either way for Pakistan. With the exception of the J-20 China sent the most potent fighters and support aircraft it had. If the thunder could score some kills then it is more than a job well done.

People mostly think that such exercise is some kind of fighting competition & is all about scoring but that is wrong. The idea of these exercises is to share knowledge, learn more, practice to the perfection & create new ways of fighting in view of enemy's ability & capabilities. Furthermore, these exercises enhance the fighting capabilities by manifolds especially when parties involved deploys the most latest or relevant war machines which represents the most war scenario in this region. This is all about developing new tactics & perfecting the existing art of war whereby machines are put to maximum output and tested to the limits which ultimately helps strengthen the capability & skills as well.

in Pic 1 and 2, birds are practising tactics against radar signatures, i think.
PGs are clustering and JFTs are de clustering but hard to tell without knowing full details!

It's just a normal peel off over base aka initials.

These regular exercises show that Pakistan and China are more than Iron Brothers,they have the same mission.
