ISLAMABAD: Pakistan signed an agreement for sale of 10 ‘Super Mushshak’ aircrafts to the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) on Friday, according to a Pakistan Air Forces’ (PAF) announcement.
“The contract signing ceremony was held at Abuja (Nigeria), where Air Vice-Marshal Iya Ahmed Abdullahi and Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC) Chairman Air Marshal Arshad Malik signed the contract,” PAF Spokesman Air Commodore Syed Muhammad Ali said.
The contract also includes operational training and technical support and assistance to NAF. PAF would completely establish this facility in the shortest possible time, he said.
This contract would not only open new avenues for export of aviation equipment to foreign countries but also help in generating revenue for the country. The aircraft is already in service with Saudi Arabia, Oman, Iran and South Africa.
The deal further strengthens PAC’s status as a world class aviation industry producing the supersonic JF-17 Thunder and Super Mushshak trainer aircraft.
