sir,
The previous member whom I was responding to, like many others here on the forum are very quick to discount America's support to pakistan to ensure there is stability in the region.
To ensure regional stability, it is necessary that pakistan's military must be strong enough to thwart any threat from India. Same is for India vis-a-vis china. As many members here a quite vocal about sending ICBM's to the big apple, my view is american friendship has longterm benefits and but depending on america has short term losses, but enmity purely stupid. The reason for chiniese hardware being purchased by pakistan is more financial than strategic, If pakistan could easily afford f18's or f15's would they still be buying JF's and j10's, i highly doubt it, but others may disagree. In the end your government needs to do ensure all is well" between islamabad and Wn DC
before that you said i was an ignorant living in a la la land where big bad Indians are out for blood of Pakistanis and now you suggesting that Pakistan military must be strong to thwart any threat from India. Self contradicting are we? So either you agree that India is a threat, Pakistan military needs to thwart or it is not and Pakistanis are a bunch of fools who consider it to be.
And for your last line, the buying of Chinese hardware over the US has more to do with sanctions free then money. Are you really that naive that you cant see that US hardware comes with strings attached and they are prone to sanctions.Shall i repeat history lessons for you.
India itself was very careful in selecting a jet for its MRCA tender. Even your fellow countrymen would agree on the dubious dealings of the US specially when it comes to selling of military hardware,US is not a trustworthy supplier a lesson Pakistan learn the hard way.
How far are you willing to go to prove your namak haalli to the US of A.
