Hahaha of course; I have cousins that are in the RTAF.
Thanks for the posting of the S. Korean jets..amazing that SKAF uses F-4; I mean those fighters are extremely old and slow...I understand why they would retain the use of F-5s Freedom Fighters because those babies are small and extremely fast/agile. Can out maneuver an SU-30 MKK and easily outmaneuver a Mig Flanker.
Now..I have a question on the J-10; they look like modified Soviet migs with uncanny resemblance to our F-16s. Interesting if the PLAAF managed to get the specs from their Pakistani allies in return for military purchasing of Chinese hardware; I mean as far as I remember..I hear the PAF is purchasing 150 J-10 fighters......
Another question is..how do J-10 fighters fare against the F-16/F-5/Mirage 2000???
Cheers my chinese friend!

F-4's sure are old.. although they made the SKAF very strong at the time they came in..
but don't worry..
F-15K's are coming.. upgrades of F-15E, the newest and best F-15 type

The J-10 was made possible by a Russian supply of engines and a
possible Israeli assistance in its avionics(however this was firmly
denied by both parties). It is armed with the PL-8 and PL-9C
short ranged AAMs which is claimed to outperform the US sidewinders and
is on par with the russian R-73. It is also armed with
SD-10/PL-12 active radar homing medium ranged AAM very similar in shape
to the US AIM-120, it is claimed to yield similar performances when to
the AIM-120 and the Russian R-77 adder.
The J-10 is aerodynamically advanced and was designed from the
outset as an airsuperiority fighter to counter highly manuverable
Soviet MiG-29s and Su-27s. As the program progressed into the mid
90s its role shifted into a multirole fighter designed to defeat
American F-15/16 and F/A-18 fighters. The US airforce has stated
that the J-10A represents a serious threat to the F/A-18E/F in terms of
manuverability. Therefore, although its has yet to be tested in
combat, it was compare very favorably its with western and soviet
counterparts.

Good artillery pictures..lol..but remember..a good artillery is
worthless when an enemy has a better and far more superior air
offense/defense that can knock ground troops out of commission. LOL.
Good pics..good pics!

F-16C/D was world-class until the 1990's when the European and Chinese
delta-canard designs(aka French Rafale, EU Eurofighter Typhoon, Swedish
JAS-39 Gripen and Chinese J-10) became the cutting edge(not counting
the F-22). The late variants of Su-27/30 (aka Su-35/37) were also
extraordinary, although they were somewhat inferior avionics-wise, they
made it up with their gravity-defying performances.
