The Argentinian Government has officially included $664 million in funding for the purchase of Pakistani Fighter jets in a draft budget for 2022.
Last year, the Argentina government was passionate about purchasing Pakistani fighter jets, when the deal was blocked by Britain’s embargo on Argentina.
The United Kingdom has been maintaining the embargo on Argentina since the Falklands War in 1982. Argentina in 2015 tried to acquire Swedish JAS 39 Gripen fighter jets. Later, it remained interested in the South Korean FA-50 Fighting Eagle.
