FC-1 should be US $ 25 Million per unit , according to :whats the cost difference between the FTC-2000 and the FC-1?
ive read somewhere that Sudan plans to use it for combat rather than training
but if the price isnt too different, why not go for the FC-1 instead
Well they’re likely to be a lot cheaper than those other options.Myanmar order several FTC-2000G to replace their F-7s and A-5s.
Not sure why.. they already operate FC-1s and Yak-130s. They should have ordered more of those.

It's just the rear half that stayed roughy the same as the Mig-21/J-7. Which is still some crazy redesign effort.It's amazing how much life they have squeezed out the (admittedly much modified) MiG-21 design.
