ISTANBUL (AA) - China Thursday denied that the Egyptian Air Force received its first batch of J-10 fighter jets from China, reported state media.
“It is inconsistent with the facts. Total fake news,” said Chinese Defense Ministry spokesperson Wu Qian.
Wu’s remarks came following various media reports that Egypt had received the jets from China.
Daily News Egypt had reported on Feb. 13 that Egypt received J-10 fighter jets from China.
The J-10C is a 4.5-generation multi-role fighter, equipped with PL-15 long-range air-to-air missiles, capable of engaging targets up to 300 kilometers (186 miles) away—beyond visual range.
