I’m guessing 35 million a piece is cheap. But if they’re going against China they might be better suited to have a few submarines and a good air defense system.

BTW, as much as I personally benefited from foreign equipment sales, I’d think twice about buying American. Lately the US has played too much politics with sales. Korea or Israel is a better choice. Korea for the price conscious and Israel for high tech.

Looks kind of like the offspring of a T-38 and an F-16.

Against China, yes. But this aircraft is probably intended for use against domestic insurgents.
