Can you install an iPad Air 1st Gen logic board into a 5th gen tablet?

I have an LTE 5th generation tablet with a damaged logic board. I was wondering, since these two tablets are essentially the same, if you could install the logic board for a 1st generation into it, wi-fi or lte?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Yes No

Why on earth would you believe these two are “essentially the same”?

Are you asking about a first gen. iPad Air maybe ?

@tomchai You know what...I realize I meant to write iPad Air 1st Gen. So, I made a mistake. But I'd guess you know nothing about mistakes since you're so are so perfect and above everyone else.

@arbaman Yes, you're right. I meant iPad Air. Sorry about that.

To be honest I wouldn't be able to tell you this because I have never had the situation where I needed to do so.
