PAF might be looking into buying C-130s which they should have tried even earlier as Ausis were eager to sell all of them in 2004-05... for spares as well as to upgrade some of them for future use...

so it means they will be buying 100 F-35As... and replacing 70 hornets... lolz...

Pakistan should look for the Hercules and helicopters unless they are stripped down for civilian use only.
