Less than two hours after this tweet, shares of CAC-SCIT, a sister company of JF-17 maker Chengdu Aircraft Corporation (CAC), rose 10 percent in five minutes - hitting the maximum daily rise allowed on the Chinese stock market, reported the South China Morning Post.
Earlier on Wednesday, the PAF said that it had shot down two Indian fighter jets that entered Pakistani airspace near the Line of Control (LoC), and captured Indian Air Force (IAF) Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman.
The lightweight, single-engine, multi-role combat aircraft JF-17 was developed by CAC and is produced jointly with defense and aviation contractor Pakistan Aeronautical Complex.
