Since J-10 originated from the IAI Lavi project, people assume that they are very close to F-16 in terms of maneuverability.
How can we compare the maneuverability of the F-16 Block 60 and J-10C?

$\begingroup$ A series of flight tests would be a good start. $\endgroup$– Michael HallAug 15, 2020 at 14:29

$\begingroup$ @MichaelHall, is there any such test data available in the public domain? $\endgroup$– user366312Aug 15, 2020 at 14:30

$\begingroup$ Afraid not. Fighter manufacturers do release some performance data, but quite unsurprisingly it is limited, and not necessarily fully accurate. $\endgroup$– Jpe61Aug 15, 2020 at 15:21

$\begingroup$ Yes, that site is based on data I described. The guys who put that together did not test fly the planes. They have not even seen many (most) of them live. $\endgroup$– Jpe61Aug 15, 2020 at 15:29
