Pakistan is running out of money — and it may be trying to repay Saudi Arabia with fighter jets. Islamabad has reportedly предложed converting billions of dollars in Saudi loans into JF-17 combat aircraft, jointly produced with China. On the surface, it looks like an arms deal. In reality, it’s a signal of something bigger: financial distress, strategic hedging, and a growing trust deficit in global alliances. For Pakistan, it’s survival — debt relief without dollars. For Saudi Arabia, it’s insurance — a backup plan in a world where U.S. support feels increasingly conditional. The JF-17 isn’t a rival to the F-35. It’s cheaper, expendable, and built for regional wars — exactly what Riyadh needs right now. But Washington has made one thing clear: buying Chinese-linked systems could jeopardize access to American weapons. That leaves Saudi Arabia facing a choice it never wanted to make. This isn’t about jets. It’s about trust — and who still controls it.
