No FA-50s For You! U.K. Bureaucrats Swat Down Argentine Fighter Plan

Budgetary problems, government infighting and, more recently, U.K. diplomatic maneuvering have combined to deprive Buenos Aires’ air force of new planes.

I guess there not over the Falklands war.

Now all these nations are beginning to learn a new lesson and will understand the danger of having 5 eyes Anglo-Saxon alliance esp. US related technologies or components in their system.
All these deals need their approvals.

South Korea is not technologically advanced it depends on western countries.

@Indos kan dah kata...
KFX critical components are western origin.

Argentina should buy from China. Since UK kicked out Huawei 5G. Sell some J-10Ss if they are interested in light fighters.

It will have to be either China or Russia, and at their price point, Argentina may have to reconsider the JF-17, a variant of the Block III. Wonder how a JF-17 sale to Argentina would affect Pak-UK Relations. May still go through as the sale would have to be made by China. In fact, China may be really happy to make that sale to get back at the UK after what has been happening in Hong Kong.

Argentina should buy from China. Since UK kicked out Huawei 5G. Saab may be too expensive for Argentina. Sell some J-10s if they are interested in light fighters.

Let alone China we must also go with the deal or atleast use it to teach them sense especially when UK continues to harbour our criminals like altaf hussain and nawaz sharif and hyrbyair marri and ishaq dar. Every second person convicted by out courts is granted asylum there and irony is that in return we get to have lessons in human rights and rule of law! UK cant just have its cake and eat it too. There is no reason for us alone to care for our relations, the onus lies equally with them as well. I wish our foreign office and establishment start growing some balls and go on some offensive tit for tat diplomacy.

What baffles me is this. How CA one coy try stop another one from carrying out a deal with another one how is this possible.

Take a good look at what they did to TSMC and you will understand.
There is something going on inside China.
There are more than 40,000 chips and semiconductors firms in China today.
China just unveiled its Xinling 01 Smart Driving AI Chip a few days ago. It does not required high edge 5nm or 7nm lithography.
Immediately FCC under Ajit Pai started issuing licences to Huawei manufacturing to foreign companies to manufacture non 5G related chips for Huawei. The US companies have been lobbying and telling these anti-China idiots, we are all badly affected. Already M&A is happening in order for them to survive.
Examole. AMD has acquired rival Xilinx for USD50 billion. Trouble ahead.
Companies like Nvidia, Infineon, etc are beginning to feel the heat of competition from China.
USA is heading for deep shit within 1~2 years as China share of its manufacturing of global chips keep rising.
USA has decline from 39% in 2005 to just 17% today. It will decline even faster under Trump administration.

This is why you must rely on your own technology.
