Why can’t Pakistan just buy mass produced SD-10s from China? What prevents it?Why would Pakistan just "pay" and not establish it's industrial base in AAM/SAM? Once mass produced, you could field these on aircrafts as well as on land and ships........ there is a lot more that goes into SAM systems so it would create a whole new industry base as well.
@araz @Chak Bamu ; Your input on the scenario above for Pak to build it's own SAMS derived from SD-10 and also produce SD-10 ER locally?
What is the lot more going into SAM systems that Pakistan cannot procure en masse instead of dedicating limited capital and resources into needing to do it indigenous?
