On 25 September 2024, the official website of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan announced that the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC) JF-17C Block-III was “integrated into the arsenal of Azerbaijan’s Air Force.”
The statement indicates that Azerbaijan signed onto acquiring an unspecified number of PAC JF-17Cs. Currently, this press release is the only official statement surrounding this potential acquisition.
Before this announcement, there had been unverified reports of Baku signing a $1.6 billion US deal for an undisclosed number of JF-17s.
Neither Pakistan or Azerbaijan have confirmed those reports, but at the minimum, a JF-17 sale to the Azerbaijani Air Force is underway.
