Whatever the name is, it's open to debate. My point is: no one can make a modern tank overnight. The Indian Arjun is a good demonstration. The Chinese also went a long way in developing its MBT and finally offered a tank which you can say is close to the modern Western tank standard in many ways at the time. PA benefited greatly from the JV with China who had transferred the whole technology to Pakistan. But JV means both sides should benefit from it. It's all very natural that no Chinese company will do it free of charge. I'm not saying China has offered Pakistan the most advanced tank in the world or has transferred to Pakistan the state of art tank technology. That's certainly not the truth. But no matter how you are not satisfied with the performance of it. You have to buy it because you do not have it. You can improve it by replacing all of the components or whatever you like. But it won't be free of charge just because you are not happy with it. Is this so hard to accept? I don't know why some abroad Pakistani members here have gone so crazy about it? I think maybe the Western anti-Chinese propaganda has done a great job in this...
"And donot start me on, what Pakistan has given in terms of its contribution to western and Pakistani own technology to China. China got MBT 2000 out of this JV project which it sells to other nations."
That's the most shameless word I have ever heard from a Pakistani. What kind of an animal dare to say these words?
