If you closely look, it does not cost Chinese Government much to raise the anxiety level of India. Even if they donate 16 aircrafts, they subsidize 33% of the cost. But it keeps the money in Chine, the worker busy, maintain job levels. How long can Indians keep making 10s of billion dollars deals to answer the increased threat perception from Pakistan. mind you that Indians have felt secure if the parity is 3 to one in its favour. They cannot win against Pakistan 1 to 1.
Seems like a smart poker game started by Chinese. If China keeps playing, we may see a lot more various systems that we cannot otherwise be cost prohibitive to us.
India defense budget is 10 times of Pakistan while pakistan have to live on soft loans still it is less than 2.5 of our GDP on the other hand your defense budget is increasing day by day. So you don't enjoy anything on that front.
Also we are getting top notch aircrafts like MKI, MCRA, C-17, C 130 , P8i etc. on the other hand you are getting chinese product who are still evolving and are no match of their western counterparts. remember U have to pay premium for the quality
