1. The responsibility of maintaining these weapons given to Pakistan lies with China’s company ‘Elite’. When the company inspected these weapons, most of the weapons and missile components were found to be in broken condition.
2. A turbocharger (a device that increases engine power) in an unmanned aerial vehicle had developed cracks. Unmanned aerial vehicles are used to locate the enemy’s troops and arsenals.
3. When AR-2 surface-to-air missiles were tested, some of them were found to be useless. They were not even in a position to strike.
Editorial viewpoint
This is the history of China. Hence, what can be different regarding the weapons sold to Pakistan ? Does Pakistan even have the courage to ask China for an explanation ? |
