too much reliance on China is also bad.
Its good to keep a balance. I hope the deal goes through
Pakistan Should explore both Turkish offer as well as Chinese to see which one serves Pakistan's Strategic interest. Pakistan should explore Joint venture with Chinese that includes ToT. I seriously doubt Turkish offer would include ToT as they themselves have Joint Ventured with the European Consortium.
Pakistan has an excellent relationship with the Chinese , already, so that might be the way to go if ToT is included to sweeten the deal. In every deal, Pakistan should prefer Joint Ventures with China that support our own industry and support China's Defense Industry, as well. The main reason for this type of approach is our very special relationship with China and China's willingness to share Technology with Pakistan. Pakistan should really be doing more joint development projects with China like our very successful collaboration with them with the JF-17's.
As far as US is concerned , haven't we Pakistanis learnt our lesson. They sell us Military hardware and then put embargo on the Parts at the first sight of disagreement. Consequently Billions of Dollars of money tied up in Hardware becomes useless as the Equipment gathers RUST on the Tarmac. How many times do we need to get hit on the head with a baseball bat before we wise up.
We will be purchasing both, in line with the AWACS deal.

Why china and turkey will form a J V with Pakistan and waste their resources on some new project , instead they can waste the same time and same resources on the old platforms they got and mature it ,
the main edge what turkey is the weapons and avionics they are European
while on the other side they are Chinese untested and Pakistan has habit of going to Europe or US if they can get it
Now All is ON US because of the engines and the future purchases of US helicopters
Pakistan cant maintain 2 different Weapons of different origin and use them at same time what will be idiotic
What other option can you suggest? Russian?
The fact is there is only 2 option for PAF. Western or Chinese. Western is proven time to times unreliable.
No because, both countries China and Turkey are offering us excellent deals - which would prevent all our eggs in one basket and also allow us awesome capability both COIN and Anti Armor.

you can keep the balance when you have money to Buy product and keep its supply line open in the time of need
This already had happend with pakistan in 1999
Best option is to check which Craft is more suitable for Pakistan and comes in cheap price tag with some extra packaging
China already has a Joint venture with Pakistan, Genius.
It is called JF-17 THUNDER, YOU KNUCKLEHEAD.
and for jf 17 did china scrapped J 10 program ? Now and jf 17 wasnt only for pakistan Jf 17 was a JV for ageing fleets of developing countries
Now China And Turkey already had created their Product which is almost Operational or in testing phase now You want them to ignore their orginal product and start A new JV ? and i m knucklehead
Well Their weapons are reliable But their daddy is not .
