Despite your fanboyism, Pakistan was actually very successful in manipulating large powers (mostly US) into giving us nice toys and helping us along. Pakistan was the first country to get the F16 and because of us, the US had to export it to other allies as well. Even though they were developing the F20 for export.
As for the future
Well the future lies in east Asia, mostly China, and guess who's good friends with China?
I'll give you a hint, it's not India
China, in my opinion is a temporary solution. Han Chinese majority will not be able to absorb a large state like Pakistan in a union, so it will be difficult for Pakistan to ever become an integral part of China, may be a partner and a trusted ally at the most, lets say SCO member, like Turkey has become a NATO member, but not part of EU. In my opinion, Pakistan needs to explore other options, if Russia refuses to include it in Eurasian Union, then Iran, Turkey, GCC+ remains pretty much the only available option, while remaining allied with the Chinese for the time being. But then too many people will see the shadow of Khilafa in that, not that it matters what other people think. Just my 0.02.
