Hi,
@Deino has talked many a times about pakistan not having funds for aircraft---.
Yet the production of 054's has begun---4---one after the other---8 submarines---1 after the other---and multiple other corvettes and weapons---.
What was that---close to 8 billion dollar deals for navy---.
And according to deino---pak had no funds---.
Now for the J20---the J20 is not fully developed---it is in the critical stage of final development---. Once it reaches that stage---it would first meet the needs of the Plaaf by default---. And after that if Paf decides to buy it---there is nothing from the chinese side that would stop it---.
Write it down---take it to the bank and deposit it in the safe deposit---.
Over 8 years ago I wrote about pak navy to get the type 054's---4 subs and aircraft---and all super studs were crying---Pak has no money---but about 3-4 years ago---suddenly the money popped up---.
The problem here is not china---the problem here is pakistan---. Pakistanis are petty criminals---all they know is to take bribes and commission and steal land---they do not know how to make deals for the welfare of the nation---.
The American came asking for help after 9/11---. Pakistan was sitting on the deal of the century---yet they fckd up so bad that you cannot even cry about it---. The US was a LAYDOWN at that time---and yet the pakistani public let them get away with it---.
What happened with the 8 submarine order---and the 4 type 054 order---. The indian sub came in visiting---. Pakistan navy was fck face wondering what happened---china was fck faced what did we do---they both suddenly found out that they both fckd up---.
The geo political tactical situation of gwadar had taken a very very serious and a sharp turn or the worst---as it was supposed to---and I had talked about it for a almost decade ago that neither would china---nor would pakistan be ready to protect gwadar because they both were not ready to understand what gwadar was doing to the region---.
Next came the Yemen crisis---where pakistan again failed miserably to understand the consequences---. The came 26th feb---and then came the sanctions back on iran---iran also threatened to attack pakistan as well---US naval battle group back in the region and then suddenly china realized how critical the situation had grown---.
The US had deployed the F22 / F35 in an active role in the region ( syria )to tell pakistan and china---hey little boyz---take a look at our toyz---.
Now why is china building the J20's if it still needs changes---because it wants to get its pilots and techs ready to use the aircraft to its fullest capacity and familiarize itself with what it has now---and when the final changes take place the pilots and tech would already be on top of their game knowing the aircraft to around 80%---and the newer changes would be absorbed at a much much faster pace---.
That final product is what the Paf would want---.
