It is good that Pakistan is being helped.

Is it a part of an aid package given free or is Pakistan paying for it?

The US has given enough money to Pakistan and so they should pay for it, shouldn't they?

I think Niether Sir,.......They actually acquiring 4 for these AEW for 300Million, Big Discount!!

Turboprop aircrafts perfectly suits PAF requirments, The operating cost is less than Turbo Jets. The aircraft supplied to Pakistan reportedly are equipped with turboprop engines produced by Pratt & Whitney Canada in place of their Chinese counterparts.

Chinese sources claim that the KJ-200 and ZDK-03 have superior range compared to the Saab 2000

No but seriously, how is a Chinese made AWACS gonna talk to F 16's and all the American ground infrastructure. Or is this just for the Chinese planes?

I think they've data linked the western planes to the Eeriye's they have. This one is for their J-17s and J-10s, I could be wrong though.

Depends on test results suffered & calculated by Pakistanis.

Nevertheless I think we will soon have BRAHMOS on-board on Su-30 MKI. I think we can gun down AWACS with the help of BRAHMOS.
