@Oscar looks like Japan has expanded its participation compared to the previous AMAN.

This is a good example of a balanced foreign policy

China is our biggest Allie and Japan comes and visits us

friendly ties with everyone and most important Japan has given Pakistan many generous loans including help and funding for Kohat tunnel, that was when China was not too involved in Pakistan construction

Probably unrelated, but the Kawasaki P-1 is a great Orion replacement.

Probably unrelated, but the Kawasaki P-1 is a great Orion replacement.

It'd be quite the conversation, Chinese subs and Japanese sub-hunters. I suspect the P-1's sensor suite would need to be from a third-party, like the Europeans.
