flight instructors, test pilots... ekdum top guns.
Yes yes, you won this space battle by an innings and day to spare, not my contention
I am illustrating Pak china cooperation and the opportunity china offers... in line with involved, present not too far behind....
If Pak could contribute more, on space program, it would happem, and astronaut is about the max and gets pak a mention, no cheen no astronaut
But space just a new recent front....
Different example...Pak air force is stronger institution, they can benefit from 5th gen fighter sooner than India (and 6th



), as well as future developments, they can absorb it, stay very relevant, no cheen none of dis, some good kismet
If scientific and industrial base were stronger they could get a lot more on frontier tech.
Pak is basically lucky china assists with much less drama and strings and that they can have as a strong ally either first or second global technology and industrial leader
Pak is foolish that they can absorb not much
India...the critical stuff you need you are not getting from west
Tldr:Significant qualitative strategic relationship benefits with china, persistently strong.....oceans, mountains, air, meta verse, universe
