Talk:CAC/PAC JF-17 Thunder

Pro-Pakistan sources for claims
The sources used in this article for making the claim that "IAF MiG-21 was also shot down by a JF-17" is taken from pro-Pakistan sources. The sources you mentioned ([125] [126]) which are from "CNN" and "The diplomat" respectively do not put the facts correctly. Firstly, CNN says "According to  some  reports, It may have been one of those jets that on Wednesday downed an Indian Air Force fighter plane" KEY WORD- some. They don't mention any specific report they used for this, but it probably was from some pro Pakistan report as no other media proudly claims that this is what happened (more proof for this is the second source you mentioned). Now, The Diplomat says "According to  unconfirmed  media reports, the PAF military aircraft that shot down the Mig-21 Bison was an Aeronautical Complex/Chengdu Aerospace Corporation (PAC/CAC) JF-17 “Thunder” Block II multirole fighter jet" KEY WORD- unconfirmed. They themselves said that these reports are unconfirmed so it means that both of the sources you took for this claim are not saying what you framed in your article. (brief history time here) Moreover, we all know that India found the AIM-120C in its territory which proves that it was the F-16 which shot down the Mig-21 (more proof for this in the next line). Heck, in the stupid "memorial" they made for the shoot down of mig-21, it is written "This aircraft was shot by PAF F-16" THEY THEMSELVES SAID IT. So, I ask you to change this, as their is simply WAY TO MUCH proof for the fact that it was shot down by a F-16, not the jf-17. Experience31 (talk) 15:47, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
