Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee (JCSC), General Nadeem Raza, is currently visiting Argentina to discuss bilateral military ties between both countries.
General Raza was welcomed by his counterpart, Chief of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Juan Martin Paleo. Argentine Armed Forces presented a guard of honor to General Raza upon arrival in Buenos Aires.
Among other matters that were discussed during the one-on-one meeting between the two officials, the sale of 18 JF-17 Thunder Block-III multirole fighter jets to the Argentine Air Force was also discussed.
After the meeting, General Raza called upon Argentine Defense Minister. Both explored areas of mutual defense cooperation as well as regional security issues.
General Raza’s visit to Argentina comes over a month after General Martin’s visit to Pakistan in August. The Argentine General visited Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC) Kamra and inspected JF-17s.
In December 2020, Argentina decided to procure JF-17s after South Korea refused to supply Argentine Air Force FA-50 fighter jets due to diplomatic pressure from the UK, which is Argentina’s geopolitical rival.
In September 2021, the Argentine government officially earmarked $664 million in the country’s 2022 budget for the purchase of JF-17 Thunder fighter jets.
Is this his job?
Deal is already done, when Argentina Army Chief visited PAC, this is final of the deal
It’s good for Pakistani economy and defence industry

— are you sure that it’s for JF17? Even The Villian is pushing it’s used F16 to keep Argentina under it’s control instead of handing over to CHINA. F16 stell seems to be best as Pakistan needs it.
Green Signal is given by Argentina, so the Visit of Pak, Army Official is possible
Yes that’s true due rejection of korean defense,and reject tejas which is far below their expectations as multirole dighter jet,

Argentina is a country with enormous potential to have secured jf-17 fighter interceptor aircraft.
Fewer people in Pakistan are aware of the fact that Argentina Govt secretly assisted Pakistan back in 1971 Indo-Pak conflict by supplying spare parts for Mirage 5p.
I am sure this deal will go a long way to strengthening the brotherly relationship and tremendous defence cooperation between Pakistan and Argentina.
Weldone pak Army continue
Alhumdulilah it great achievement for nation that we are capable of building such advance aircraft may Allah give us more success Ameen
Really a bless of Allah for Pakistan
His job description was to stay at the border as a servant of the people obeying Civilian orders. They are doing everything except that. Pity.
Making aircraft, tanks, guns or other defense equipment is not the job of armed forces.
Their job is to use such equipment at or beyond borders. They are doing everything which is not their job and not doing anything which is their actual job. What a crockpot discipline and joke of a binding to constitutional mandate.
