Iran And China Ink Arms Deal To Sell Tehran 24 Fighter Jets Based On Israeli Technology

Julie Farby - AHN News Writer

Tehran, Iran (AHN)-Iran has signed a deal with China to purchase 24 J-10 fighter jets developed with Israeli technology.

The J-10 aircrafts were developed based on technology borrowed from Israel's Lavi fighter jet, a project started in the 1980s, but later abandoned due to mounting U.S. pressure over concerns it would rival the American-made F-16. The technology for the Lavi jet was later sold to China by Israel, despite U.S. opposition to the deal.

The new arms agreement inked between Iran and China is estimated at a cost of about $1 billion, with deliveries of the 24 jets expected between 2008 and 2010 as a replacement for Iran's current MiG-29 jets.

The new J-10 fighter jets have an operational range of about 3,000 kilometers, making Iran's newly acquired aircraft capable of striking Israel.

would be a bitch for Israel to be attacked by those ...

24 military jets at a total cost of 1 billion, made in China?

Lets see the typical Wal mart t-shirt lasts 3 dry cycles, Israel need not worry.

The usual ' if it is true ... ' ... pretty lame, I always post truth, not theories ...

I understand that a link from an Iranian news paper would be considered laughable, or one on a chinese newspaper.. If american, it would require to be Fox, since CNN s so liberal ..

But wait, let's make it simple ... how about a ISRAELI news site ....

Why do arms deals always seem to come back to haunt the seller?

That's hilarious, God bless China.

1 billion for 25+ year old fighter jet technology for a plane that actually never made it into production? Seems a bit high.

The USA once sold Iran F-14's during the Iran Contra affair....

I wonder how much the US spent on war related expenses today...

At least they're better than those stupid MiG-29's, lol.
