Does anybody know ... how much is VT-1A per unit ?
i believe the quote for the tanks to Peru was $5.8 million each and then Peru said at the end it could not afford paying so much, so then they lowered it to $4.7 million. I guess around that range, really depends on the customization and such.
according to kanwa, china has exported production rights to WS-1B to Thailand. Thailand is the third country to get WS-1/2 after Turkey and Sudan.
Also, looks like China looking to export FT-6, which is a SGB, to Pakistan and other countries as part of JF-17's weapon package.
Also, it says that China has exported MBT-2000 to Morocco (which we already know) and Burma.
Pakistan has received the production license for A-100 MLRS.
It says that China is talking with Morocco about AR-2, but it hasn't been signed yet. (which seems to contradict what we had before)

FT-6? Doesn't Pakistan already have those? And didn't China stop producing those over a decade ago?
are you thinking of fn-6? ft-6 is SGB, which is not even in wide deployment anywhere in plaaf

Oh, for a second I thought you were talking about exporting old JJ-6 Farmers (FT-6 was their export designation)

I don't know how prevalent WIG aircraft are around the world but I just saw on US national news a story of Iran parading new WIG recon aircraft that looks similar to what China's military has been playing with. The US national media airing such a story only means they must see it as something significant especially since it was mentioned they were radar evading stealth aircraft. Aren't they just low-flying amphibious aircraft?
Why not just buy a production line for the JF-17 from Pakistan?
The JF-17 is a much better option for Iran rather than have the Chinese help them make a re-worked F-5.
It is also very flexible in terms of possible armament and avionics - part of Pakistan's requirement as an option to fix Western and Chinese systems.
Spending more on Iran's F-5 design is a waste of money, and a sop to Iran's domestic technical pride.
