Pakistan buying 700 air-to-air missiles from US company TUCSON: Pakistan is buying 700 air-to-air missiles made by US defence group Raytheon for 284 million dollars, the company said on Monday. Pakistan is purchasing 500 Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missiles (AMRAAM), the largest international order for this weapon, and 200 short-range AIM-9M Sidewinder missiles, Raytheon said in a statement. Delivery of the AMRAAM arsenal will start in 2008 and continue through 2011, it said. AMRAAM, from a joint US Air Force and Navy program, are used by the armed forces of 32 countries, while 20 countries have AIM-9M Sidewinder missiles, the statement said. Pakistan has signed a letter of offer and acceptance for the 700 missiles, it said. "The combined 284 million dollar procurement augments Pakistan's established inventory and will provide the bulk of the air-to-air fire power of the Pakistan Air Force," the statement said. afp +++ -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
