The deal is expected to be finalized in November, during the International Defence Exhibition and Seminar in Karachi, according to a senior official of Pakistan’s Defence Export Promotion Organisation.

The total number of aircraft that Nigeria might be ordering is still not known. The official declined to reveal if Nigeria will be the first export operator of the aircraft given the fact that Myanmar too has ordered them, but from China.
