Pakistan to sell Super Mushshak aircraft to Qatar

Author: Agencies

ISLAMABAD: An agreement was signed on Thursday between the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC) and the Qatar Emiri Air Force for export of Super Mushshak aircraft to Qatar.

PAC Chairman Air Vice Marshall Arshad Malik and Qatar Air Academy Commander General Salem Hamid Al Nabet signed the contract at Doha.

A PAF contingent comprising Super Mushshak aircraft with its air and ground crew participated in the Qatar Air Show earlier this year. Emir of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Prime Minister Abdullah bin Nasser bin Khalifa Al Thani and the military high command of Qatar had shown keen interest in the aircraft.

Earlier this year, a deal was signed with Nigeria for export of Super Mushshak aircraft.

The contract will not only open new avenues for export of aviation equipment to foreign countries but it will also help in generating revenue for the country. The deal will strengthen PAC’s status as a world class aviation industry producing the supersonic JF-17 Thunder and Super Mushshak trainer aircraft.
