Today the dollar is higher relative to the pound than it was in 2004
2004: 100 million pound
2015: 126.4 - 142.7 million pound aka 196 - 221 million dollar

Remember that PN paid the Chinese 175 million dollar each for the four F22, including 6 helicopters

For 12 Visby, assuming the Swedes would sell, expect to pay around 2.35-2.65 billion dollar. Without nothing extra such as heli's, spares, ordbance, training, maintenance etc included in the deal.

Pakistan can go form them in future if they are bang of the buck as economy is getting better (Chinese corridor has created the need of powerful PN & PAF to protect it) and provide vital required capabilities against large and advance foe.
