No weapon offer?

nothing about marlin

I doubt if it is his job to sell equipment from private firms to Pakistan.

It is up to the civilian governments to make such deals. The Admiral, General or Air Marshall can merely help in the decisions.
 
French Naval chief calls on Noman Bashir

OK

Get ready for Grand theft.

yeap, french-Pakistan deal with Zardari-Sarkozi involved, it is bound to be a GRAND THEFT!!:disagree:

i still hope, someone in the top ranks will be wise enough to veto the french submarine deal, advising either to go back to U214 or to look towards what latest china can offer.
with the chinese subs in PN, there will stil be a requirment of westren system but i wont think about frrenc as it will be a big corruption gamr and the financese will be hampered further!!

regards!
Arsalan Aslam.
 
dont expect any major weapons purchase/agreements in the short-term - only deals already signed for / in the pipeline will be paid for. its chill time folks!:coffee:
