Javaid | 2 years ago | Reply I am very disappointed on this exercise because in past experiences the US was very incoperativ. He refused to provide the spare parts of F16. Also refused to provide latest army equipments to Pakistan army. Last few years America supporting India.
NKAli | 2 years ago | Reply You say both forces have an enviable cordial relations. Frankly Sir I doubt it. It surprised me when I read it in your newspaper. You recall how the US stopped our spares and fighter aircraft that were paid for and charged parking fees This is a passing phase to test our readiness and resolve. Salams
