Export bids for JF-17 Thunder Multirole Lightweight Fighter Aircraft

Its hard to believe.
Democracy in Africa? Seriously?
They all tend to state they are Democratic.
The issue is based on the side telling their story. From western media none is democratic...Through their own media all are Democracy.

Back to the topic The country that is in question is Zimbabwe...As that is the only other country that has been monitoring JF-17 from day one. By now they have acquired all the right credentials for being in advance phase.

Well is Rafale even an option for them?
Too expensive. But old mirages aren’t out of the question.
Senegal has practically no firepower, hence they could potentially be a test case for China to procure a foothold in West Africa. Senegal is also not happy with France for some time on the handling of their duel citizens in France.

JF-17 could provide the right development if they are able to procure adequate industrial benefits as the qualified workforce can be flown back from EU along with funds.

PAC has been pushing JF17 to them. I am quite sure it’s Senegal.

If Argentina is requesting transfer of technology (ToT) or an assembly line then 10+2 = 12 aircraft make little sense. They should at least commit to ~100 aircraft for the ToT to be a cost effective investment (~30 of which may be required to be built in China/CAC-Pakistan/PAC).
The 12 is likely an initial and immediate order. It's likely they're requesting a ToT and local assembly for a far larger order.

Hi,

Anyone with any military engineering background would want to get some level of TOT for their weapons systems.

Think about it this way---pak and india are at war---a critical parts assembly section is destroyed by an enemy bomb & now there is critical shortage of that part---but guess what---argentina has that assembly working at full capacity---
