In a bold show of military support, a J-10C fighter jet of the People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) has been seen displaying Rafale kill marks — a gesture of solidarity with the Pakistan Air Force (PAF), which recently shot down several Indian Air Force (IAF) aircraft during aerial engagements.
According to independent defense observers on social media, the PLAAF honored Pakistan’s success by marking six Indian aircraft kills on one of its J-10C jets. These include three Rafale jets, one Su-30MKI, one MiG-29, and one Heron drone.
The move sends a strong message to India, highlighting both the PAF’s growing capabilities and the close military ties between China and Pakistan.
This support comes in the wake of Pakistan’s decisive response to Indian aggression during a recent conflict. The PAF successfully brought down multiple IAF aircraft, including India’s much-touted Rafale fighter jets.
One of the PAF’s J-10CEs now proudly bears a Rafale kill mark — a proud moment for Pakistan’s air force and a blow to India’s military image.
The coordinated message from both China and Pakistan is being seen as a clear warning to India, reinforcing the strength and cooperation between the two allied air forces.
