After reading the article, I wonder why China didn't try to compete her J-10 with the rest of the defence industries? I believe it would be a luxurious contract and a window into the Latin America market.

why do you think China is trying to export J-10? There are reasons why J-10 was not permitted to even be displayed in air shows until very recently. They have an export fighter, it's called JF-17.

Actually I was not thinking they are trying to export J-10, I was thinking why they are not not trying to export J-10. They could always come up with a downgraded version of the J-10 which I still think could attract the Brazilian. It will also definitely open up a window to the rest of the Latin America market.

I think the J17 would more than suffice for most South American countries. Im sure they can inflict more than enough damage upon one another if they so wish, with second tier equipment as they are still very poor, where the emphasis should be on social/ infrastructure spending rather than very fancy military equipment.

well, I don't really know what to make of this. It says that Ecuador is buying 4 warplanes for $438 million. I really can't think of any Chinese warplane that would cost $110 million other than AWACS or another type of surveillance plane. And, I can't really imagine Ecuador needing that. So, I would guess the amount is for much less and it is for K-8s.

This article is full of errors. The MOU is for a loan of US$48M and the warcraft refered to in this article are for 4 MA-60 transport planes for the Ecuadorian Air Force to replace AVRO.

Peru close to a deal with China to buy military tanks, says Defense Minister


LivinginPeru.com
Isabel Guerra

Five MBT-2000 tanks made in China started yesterday's Military Parade, led by the Army General (EP) Richard Pitot Guzmán.

The MBT-2000 is one of the models that Peruvian Army is testing with the aim of replacing the old T-55 bought from the former USSR during the 60s and 70s; but it was reported that another three models are currently under evaluation.

However, the MBT-2000s that participated in the parade were decorated with all the General Pitot's military insignias, and this fact has created a great controversy in Peru.

While the Army states that the technical evaluations are not over yet and that the presence of these tanks was only “part of an exhibition,” Defense Minister Rafael Rey says that the Government “is close to a deal" to buy an undetermined number of tanks from China.

But the controversy is just starting. According to La Republica, these tanks have already been tested in July, by a technical commission that traveled to China, and determined, in a report signed by General Jorge Vega Yáñez, that the tanks did not meet all the specialized requirements; especially in regards to defeating the Chilean Leopard 2A4, as well as shooting 125mm missiles.

Norinco, the manufacturer, was allegedly in conditions to meet all the Peruvian requirements, but in two years' time.

Rafael Rey said that Peru is purchasing these tanks because “our current operative tanks are in pretty bad conditions.”
