Default Re: JF-17 Huge Export Potential 3rd world countries sales could go upto 1500

sayedjamil bhai Thailand is going for JAS Gripen, malaysia no news yet, bangladesh no news yet, China might order more than 150 later on after 2012 to replace its aging J-7s/A-5s, Azerbaijan might go for 12-20, Indonesia are offered all russian planes Russian market is open for them don't expect indonesia to buy FC-1/JF-17, Zimbabwe can't afford 30 might they might get out used F-7s after 2012 for their next 7-10 years, Egyptians might want to buy but US will offer to upgrade their F-16s and FC-1/JF-17 will be off the list isn't right at all.

MZUBAIR...Moroccans buying US F-16s might increase the fleet, Algerians have russian market open SU-30/MIG 29 purchases..Yes JF-17/FC-1 will have a fair market share but some of the countries mentioned are either for russian or US market unless we make them cancel those procurements and offer them juiced up JF-17.

Wished Saudis could replace their darn F-5s with JF-17s but heck US is hovering over their heads..same goes to Malaysia they have currently 11-12 squadrons of F-5 i really hope if Malaysia buys JF-17s it'll boost their Air Force replacing F-5 junkies.. but we can't predict we really might hit jackpot with countires who are operating oldies fleet like F-5 etc...

Sura 8:57 “So if you gain the mastery over them in war, punish them severely in order to disperse those who are behind them, so that they may learn a lesson.”
