Chinese Defense Stocks Surge as Pakistan Confirms J-35 Stealth Jet Purchase

On June 9, 2025, shares of Chinese defence firms soared following Pakistan’s confirmation of a deal to acquire up to 40 J-35A stealth fighter jets, marking China’s first export of fifth-generation aircraft. AVIC Shenyang Aircraft Co., the J-35’s manufacturer, hit its 10% daily trading limit in Shanghai, while Aerospace Nanhu Electronic Information Technology Co. surged 15%, per Bloomberg.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif announced the news on social media, following months of speculation and pilot training in China.

The J-35A, developed by Shenyang Aircraft Corporation, is China’s second fifth-generation stealth fighter after the J-20. Equipped with an active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar, electro-optical targeting systems, and PL-15/PL-17 long-range missiles, it offers stealth, speed (1,367 mph), and deep-strike capabilities, per defence analyst Brandon J. Weichert.

🇨🇳🇵🇰Shares of Chinese defense companies rallied Monday, after Pakistan said it intends to buy one of the Asian power’s most-advanced fighter jets as a part of major arms purchase.

Pakistan anticipates receiving deliveries by August 2025 to replace its ageing F-16s and Mirages, potentially altering South Asia’s airpower balance against India’s non-stealth Rafales and Su-30MKIs.

Reports suggest China offered a 50% discount and favourable payment terms, though Pakistan’s economic crisis raises questions about financing. Critics warn of deepening debt to Beijing. Pakistani pilots are already training in China, signalling rapid integration.

The deal, finalised after high-level talks including General Zhang Youxia’s November 2024 visit to Islamabad, reflects China-Pakistan’s strategic alliance amid India-Pakistan clashes, like the May 2025 Pahalgam attack. India’s air force, reliant on fourth-generation jets, faces pressure to accelerate its AMCA stealth program, expected by 2032.

Chinese defence stocks rallied after Pakistan claimed its J-10C jets downed Indian aircraft in May, though India denies losses. The J-35 deal validates China’s growing arms export ambitions, challenging Western dominance.

While the deal strengthens Pakistan’s deterrence, unconfirmed claims about J-10C victories and the J-35’s superiority require scrutiny. India’s larger fleet and experience may offset Pakistan’s technological leap.
