Dont we get a share from all tanks exported?

All MBT-2000s exported to Myanmar, Bangladesh, Morocco are entirely manufactured and exported by China.The same is the case with JL-8s.

Yes, but i'm pretty sure we get a share. As we helped them develop these. Also, most countries bought the K-8 rather than the JL-8.

Export versions of JL-8 are generally called K-8.Just like J-7 export versions are called F-7.
Pakistan might get a share in profit but there is no source confirming that.

K-8, meaning; they get manufactured in Pakistan.

Not really.All JL-8s exported are reffered to as K-8.
Pakistan has so far not produced a single K-8 for export.

False assumption. PAC is joint partner in jl-8/k-8 project and markets it along with China to customers. It even overhauls them.

Regarding MBT 2000, the joint marketing and profit sharing will be done between the two from 2011 onwards.

True that PAC was involved in marketing of K-8.But all K-8 so far exported were manufactured at Chinese facilities.K-8 kits to Egypt were also made in China.

As for MBT-2000s entire payment by BD and Myanmar was made to EXIM bank of China.There are no Pakistani made systems in Myanmar or Bangladeshi MBT-2000s.

Pakistani may have exported just some spare parts for K-8s and VT1As just like India exported Su-30 spare parts to Malaysia and Vietnam and T-72 spares to several nations.

You sure don't know what u r saying mate. Every MBT 2000 sold since 2008 has options to ADD these HIT made goodies in the tank. BMS, ERA, fire control and western thermal integration, AC and ammo, sopid state autoloader among others.

For K-8, off course PAC doesn't manufacture the complete aircraft as it holds 25% share. It makes front fuselage, vertical and horizontal tale and rudders.

Now back to topic.

Pakistan may market these items/add-ons; But there is zero proof that Bangladesh or Myanmar or even Morocco has purchased them.

Leave him...As an Indian he won't accept that...No point in debating him...!

The JL-8 trainer was proposed as a joint cooperation effort between the governments of Pakistan and the People's Republic of China in 1986. The name was changed on the suggestion of Pakistan's then President General Zia ul Haq to Karakorum-8 to represent the friendship between the two countries. Work on the design started in 1987 at Nanchang Aircraft Manufacturing Company (NAMC) at Nanchang, Jiangshi Province in South Central China. The Chinese chief designer of the aircraft was Mr. Shi Ping (石屏), heading a team of over 100 Chinese Engineers, while Air Cdr Muhammad Younas Tbt (M), SI(M) was the chief designer from the Pakistani side leading a team of over 20 Pakistani engineers.

As I said, you surely don't know about these procurements. The reality could give you some sleepless nights.

K-8 is a Pakistani variant that is produced in Pakistan...
