Pakistan signs deal with Sri Lanka to sell Initial order of 8 JF-17s

[The Eagle]

While exports increase total number of aircrafts , reducing the price even further,
Increasing spares available, when customer customises for them, you ll get more weapon integration ..

Total income generated can help buy AESA etc
Down side, easier for the enemy to know its capability.

Well indeed this is not out of question though every side would have not just considered but counters and measures for the same would have been done already hence deal is sealed.

JF-17 deal is signed but Sri Lanka would underplay it until they receive all 8 JF-17

Just like Myanmar underplayed it few months back... Right.

 

[barbarosa]

I don't trust current SL government. Will they keep secret about the tactical capabilities of JF-17 from India?

Sir keeping secret & business are opposite things. keep it secret or sale. choose one option.

Koi conformation bhi hoi hai abhi tak, ya awain ee bhangra daali jaa rahe ho?

Pakistan to sell 8 JF-17 Thunder fighter jets to Sri Lanka, inks eight agreements - The Economic Times

 

[AnnoyingOrange]

I think Pakistanis should calm down now....

JF 17 has been allegedly sold to Azerbaijan....Myanmar and Now Sri Lanka... I wonder they will soon claim that they sold it to India... heck even America can appear on this list sometime in future.

 

[sathya]

I think electronics , radar few avionics can be customised for the buyer

Thereby avoiding risk of secrets getting out.

So you are quoting a Indian source that uses a Pakistani source ot base the news.. but you will not believe a Sri LAnkan Newspaper ..You are one funny chap.

Sri Lanka is already the largest buyer of defence equipment from Pakistan. By selling aircraft, its like two of Sri Lanka forces getting their training and equipment from Pakistan and its a massive cooperation.

Expect more armament going Sri Lanka way as well. By the way, Nasr is only 60Km long missile. Under international law, you are allowed to sell under 300KM range missiles. Just saying.

With JFT they will be able to use weapons as per there needs with customization. Downgrade version of Ra' ad with 250km range and lots of other goodies can be offered.

 

[The Eagle]

well the one who has to do the job done is very well aware so the needful would be done.

I think electronics , radar few avionics can be customised for the buyer

Thereby avoiding risk of secrets getting out.
