Why do you lie so much and mis-quote posts for your propaganda based benefits???? I never said " brand new planes from both Russia and China". What are you? From some Indian media outlet, focused on JUST sensation and hype so others can "like" your posts? Those people are called "Attention Wh***** " in American English
Read the post before you respond. And JUST to set the record, Pakistan has over $ 20 billion in her savings account and its growing at an average of .4-.5 billion a month. So $ 4 billion is a piece of cake if they REALLY have to pay cash. But they will easily get loans like India and everyone else.
The Pakistan you knew back in 2012, is not there anymore. The Pakistan today is over her path to be the top 15th economy in the next two decades. A similar journey that India took due to Bill Clinton's help. You guys should put his picture above Nehru and Gandhi as he's really the one who with a single hand (and his Presidential powers), worked very hard and resulted in outsourcing billions of jobs and investments to India.
So you are not where you are because of something special that "India" did or the 'Indian Nation" did. You are there because of the Western investments that went into the Indian system. Similarly, Pakistan has started on that path ALREADY.
In the next 3-5 years, they'll have over a MILLION people ready to start doing outsourcing for Mobile computing platforms. Pakistan has over 110 MILLION young males, ages 16-23 (working age), with 30 years of work life in them. So TRUST ME, Pakistan in the next 20 years, from an ROI's standpoint, has a LOT more return to offer than anyone else. There is a reason why their stock market has been performing in top 5 for the past two consecutive years
So buying $ 4 - 6 or 8 billion worth of weapons that are usually paid in 3-5 years, is not a big deal. I think the PAF need to make up their mind in terms of if the JFT + -16 is REALLY a great combo that they can let it work, or if they REALLY need other platforms and which ones (J-10 or J-11 or SU-35). This jet issue is really waiting on the PAF's settling on one option. Not because of the money!!
