| Moscow, May 9: The US will supply fighter aircraft to Pakistan in an effort to intensify the fight against militants in the country's tribal regions bordering Afghanistan, a media report said.
The assurance came from US officials at a bilateral security cooperation working group meeting held in Rawalpindi on Friday, media reported on Saturday.
The warplanes to be delivered by June 2010 include F-16 fighter jets, Lockheed P3C maritime surveillance aircraft and Cobra helicopters.
Military officials also pledged to upgrade the level of intelligence exchange between the two countries, the report said. (IANS) |
