Looks like the ruskies had reduced unilaterally the hindu 'R&D share' from 25% to 13%
"India is also insistent on Russia restoring its workload in the USD10.5 billion developmental program after recently reducing it from 25 percent to 13 percent without consulting Delhi."
While its possible the paks might buy some su35 b4 J31 could be exported(i guess early 2020s the earliest bcos of the urgent need of the PLAAF), I guess it could be a propaganda ploy engineered to the benefits of both russians and paks:
(----The paks want to sabotage russian hindu relation
---- The russians want to send a warning message to the hindus )
1)Could the paks afford a meaningful number(30-40) of su35?
2)My impression is the paks need to maximise the ultilities of its smaller budget, 'diversifies' the war planes supply hindu style will not work for them
But to a yindu, spending hundreds of millions of dollars for the right to call a 100% Russian stealth fighter project "joint Indo-Russian" development is money well spent. Jai Hind!
