some one uploaded an article on this website. thought it was an interesting insight on the PLAAF training from the ROC perspective. it basically talked about the PLAAF training on Su-series and j-10 fighters...or how bad it is. i've been hearing contradicting info on the level of training that the PLAAF are really getting. some say that it is now approaching NATO standard (the really good ones anyway) and others,including this article, basically claims that it still sucks. this article is obviously not completely impartial but it does present some facts about the PLAAF that we prolly cant deny. so my question is how authentic is this article as an assessment of PLAAF's combat readiness or is it just pure propaganda and sour grape?and what is the real level of training that the PLAAF pilots are getting anyways compared to its potential opponents such as the USAF?
