The report said F35 has a wait time of 9 years. US never said no to Indonesia on this. Infact it would be of US interest to have F35 equipped INAF. So if INAF is prepared to wait like 10-12 years for F35, it's a good deal. Or else even if F15 ex is chosen as a stop gap like 36 or 48 it's still a...

In Pakistan I believe it's an competition among the parties on who arrives or proposes the best deal to the militaries so they can take on the pedestral of power. I won't be surprised if Sharif comes back to power again through some backroom deals with the military. As long as the military is...
