Due to the influence and inspiration of Second Gulf War, China has begun its revolution of military affairs. Based on the“Long Distance, Fast Victory”and “First Strike and Victory Determination”strategic instructions,it focuses on “High-Tech Powerful Army”and“High-Tech Training”to build up high quality military force and accomplish automatic and technical establishment,so that it can achieve the strategic target of winning technical partial war. F-10 combat aircraft is under permission and named of“Number 10 Project”by General Office of the State Council of PRC and Central Military Commission in January,1986. The Aircraft Design and Research Institute of Chengdu is responsible for the proJect and tried to obtain the skills on avionics system,composite material,stealth,aircraft engine,gun-fire control radar,aviation control software, canard configuration,fly by wire,and the whole aircraft technology system integration of the fourth generation jet fighters. PLA Air Force development of modernization aims at weapon equipment,human quality and organization arrangement. The thesis takes the research and development progress of F-10 combat aircraft to compare different military strategic philosophy,capability analysis,command distribution,effectiveness evaluation and its influence and future development to PLA air force strategy. At the same time,it provides a reference model for our military establishment. The research concludes that PLA Air Force has changed the military strategy to “integrity of space and sky,combination of attack and defense”because of the future development of“space-sky-battle-field”.And China enforces its practice of human quality strategic project and capability of multi-type of aircraft integrity logistics support system so that it can train the new generation to be“trans-century commander:combination of commander,staff and technician”and fasten the logistics development of PLA Air Force. After the innovation skill of quality and quantity for aircraft engine has further progress,the quality of Chinese jet fighters can not only shorten the distance of combat aircraft made by western countries but also elevate the competitive advantage in intemational arms sales as the price of F-10 is only half of F-16.
