New Delhi: China will sell Pakistan at least 36 advanced fighter jets in deal worth 1.4 billion dollars.
Pakistani officials confirmed that two squadrons of the China designed and built J-10 fighters planes are to be acquired.
The J-10 is a multirole fighter configured for air-to-air and air-to-ground missions.
