$2.4 billion was decided for 58 jets I think its the right price for 36 single seat and 4 double seat
China has a capacity to make 38 fighters in a year. I read it in Janes defence article last year for J-10 type aircrafts. I think search wikipedia for J-10 fighters.
The news is right we are going for J-10B. They are already flying in Plaaf as a test bed for new missiles and weapons integration. China made these birds for us which could not be delivered as PAF tried for FC-31 which is not ready yet to mate wih any AIR FORCE.

What are those special marks. Are those new squadron signs? The third sqdn was supposed to be with the sign of "Angel of Death" with a lantern in his hand. Can you confirm for that. No 16 sqdn is posted in Peshawar. Plenty means more than a sqdrn?

18 F-16 are already approved from congress. Just Pay and buy unless new sanctions are there. Zulu deal needs to be approved from congress. I also heard in one news that 14 of our remaining F-16 from embargoed 28 will be adjusted in this deal. Not without price adjustment, but paying difference...
Actual requirement for subs are very first time fulfilled. The Past experience of such deals were a burdon for our Navy as Augosta-90B was a choice of Peoples Party govt for huge kick backs attached with them in cloudy 90's. Navy has now decided for its own choice. The immediate requirement is...
Deal is for 20 helicopters to be delivered in one year. It will take off load on cobras which are not designed for anti terror operations. Cobras are totally meant for anti-armour operations as Tanks, Apc's and other heavy and light Armour. Mi-35's are designed for mostly anti infantry...
