Re: Pakistan to buy $1bn of Attack helicopters, missiles from USA
Because Pakistan doesn’t have the need to order the amount of hi-tech weapons that would be needs to offset the cost of developing them. You need either a huge internal military, or large export orders, to make it financially viable. Every past Pakistani effort to export our most sophisticated domestically produced weapon systems has failed. The only orders we do get are for relatively simple things like guided missiles and small arms.
