And sho china, does it give or can not?

Cheaper than China, by definition, a world factory cannot be.

[Yrec]

I think the Chinese have a lower starting price, but operation, repair and maintenance are more expensive.

In view of their quality, it is. It seems that everything is thought out, but saving on materials affects the duration of operation. They especially like to save money in mechanical units in general. It's their national fun, to make a knot from silumin when steel is needed there.))

Probably ours offered a better price / quality ratio.

Pakistan is a mountainous country, there are special requirements for tanks and other armored vehicles. And our T-90 and T-72 show themselves better than others. Well, "Tank Biathlon" also demonstrates the quality of Russian armored vehicles.

Moscow only offers and sells the weapons offered by IT ..... Islamabad-go to Krasnoyarsk KRASMASH-even through the Internet address-we depend on the (Moscow) budget ..... Give an order if for missiles, parts for engines. ..no, it's not interesting for you, but ...

[aars]

You yourself need to go out, no water flows under the lying stone.
Otherwise, parasites will shoe you.

[Anar]

The military-political vector is changing. Russia .... Turkey .... Pakistan .... Moreover, Pakistan is considered stronger than Turkey and its closest ally. Indonesia will most likely be behind them.

[aars]

It's time.
These are areas of future growth and development.

[donavi49]

Well, what kind?

anti-tank systems

Cornet best buy if you need to massively arm the people and shoot without saving. It is better than the Chinese ATGM of a similar generation. And, all sorts of new HJ-10 is a different class and price, although I would not be surprised if Pakistan buys them.

weapon

Similarly, the AK will be the most in demand for another hundred years, especially in such armies. Well, the rest of the army shooter is also on the level. The Chinese have good aroids, and the packs on Kalash and German oars are G3.

air defense equipment

Depends on what. Carapace, MANPADS? They recently bought Chinese beeches.

And Chinese Crotals

And in Europe, the SPADA-2000 system has a 25 km range.

[aars]

The locator on the last photo of such an archaic look ...
PS: chassis too, a regular road truck.

[donavi49]

So this is a plus, why bother dopchassi?

Recession is not a bad complex, although structurally outdated, but not bad. There, the European version of the AIM-7 rocket, of course, under a hundred upgrades, there the fuel was changed, and the head, and the warhead.

The archaic radar is a wide survey, like LAADS. Spada fires at the HEADLIGHTS on its own mast.

[aars]

I'm not talking about an additional chassis, but about the fact that the cross-country ability is so-so ...

Nothing personal...

[aars]

And what kind of ideology can there be?
That India and Pakistan are somehow parallel to us ...

India and Pakistan are somehow parallel to us ..

The U-2 did not invade the USSR from the territory of India, and the spooks did not go to Afghanistan to kill the Russians, unlike Pakistan. In addition, there is an informal, but rather close alliance between the Muslim countries, within the framework of which Pakistan received free oil from the Saudis for the downed Russian-made Indian plane, which was enough for Pakistan for quite a long time. By supporting Pakistan, Russia spoils relations with both Indians and Afghans.

That is why Russia is striving for good relations with this union.
The share of Muslims in our country is significant and will only grow.

Quote: gsev

Russia spoils relations with Hindus too

So the Indians were the first to change the vector in favor of greater cooperation with the United States.
This cannot be left without reciprocal steps, the support of India's traditional enemy.

India expressed "concern" about Pakistan's plans to purchase from Russia a batch of Pantsir-C1 air defense missile systems,

Let them buy it themselves, they also remember being offered it, but they said that "Pantsir", compared to the South Korean skimmer, sucks. It turns out - and I myself will not give it to others ... Not beautiful!

[mojohed2012]

It's good that they buy.

And it pleases
If only they could resist the threats of zaluzhniki, and they will soon follow

[aars]

After the assassination of Osama, relations between the US and Pakistan have fallen apart.

[Lipchanin]

Quote: aars

The US and Pakistan have gone badly wrong.

And zaluzhniki no matter who they threaten with sanctions. Any ... will fit

[donavi49]

Pakistan at knives with the United States. Not directly as strong as Iran, but threats won't work and even sanctions. For Pakistan, the main partner is China, the second is Turkey (+ Qatar), then the KSA and the UAE. He doesn't care about the rest.

[Lipchanin]

Yes, that's what I hope they can't break.
But they will still threaten
They can't live without it

ndas ... business is this! if ours decided to sell .. to be in charge clearly calculated the steps of this scenario

[Viktor Sergeev]

I didn’t understand India’s concern about Pakistan’s purchase of Carapaces, they are so bad, right? Let them buy Korean junk themselves and see which one is better if real collisions occur.

Look how many Indians have bought American weapons.
The helicopters certainly could not be bought from the Americans. We do not care about their multi-vector nature? That means we need to offer helicopters to Pakistan. So we have to act symmetrically. China has the S-400, and India will have it, and nothing.

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

So you look, and Pakistan will become "fraternal" .. And before, weapons from Pakistan, to Afghanistan were transported to fight with our soldiers ... Everything flows, everything changes ..
