Welcome to China :welcome::welcome:
 
Interesting timing of the visit , isn't it? couple of days ago american jets violated Sri-Lankan airspace and two days later Sri-lankan president is in China


Would be interesting to know if the visit was pre-planned or not

I wonder if Sri-Lanka has such budget to sign some big deals , But surely they are looking for replacements of their old aircrafts but reportedly they selected mig-29 for that. So J-10 will be out of question so might be jf-17 but yeah something about light arms or tanks
