Are the paf now admitting that chinease current thunder has inferior radars and avionics since they want french upgrades.
Two can the Pakistanis stomach a estimated 2.5 billion dollar upgrades cost fior 100 thunders ie $25 million each.
The French systems cost twice the cost of a USA system and five times s cost of a chinease system
What a waste of disk space due to someone's personal issues with Pakistan. Have you even read through posts on this thread????? Or is the fact that the French kissed you good bye, without a French kiss hurting too much??
The French systems are being considered for the ME countries (its been discussed on many threads on here). Some ME and African countries (X-French colonies), are used to French equipment. BUT, have more Chinese influence on them at this time. After dealing with the Rafale drama with India, the French had a rude awakening like the Russians. They realized, whether India buys Rafales or not, they would've made a few billion by now from the Pakistanis, a couple of ME countries and a couple of African countries.
So, they are after that alternative market. Chinese influence, Pakistani-Chinese assembled product, Russian and French components. Everyone involved makes money. Can't get more cooperative and multinational than that
Which SAM's have been offered to pakistan?
Last reports I've read, they had HQ 8 and some 9 as FD-2000 (under serious silence). I think they got two batteries of FD-2000 already installed at "undisclosed" location!
