TP,
This news item talks about Governer of a province in Pakistan called Panjab. He only mentioned China as an example of a country which has achieved economic successs and should be followed by Pakistan.
Also, i have to agree that the first link is one of those tabloid type newspaper available in overseas.
Here are links to some of the more respected and highly circulated news papers in Pakistan.
(it has two of newspapers one of which is in english: )
But that said, even these newspapers screw up alot of times. Case in point the news item that was published in dawn regarding H2/H4.
Interesting article from Kanwa,
I actually have a little faith in this article, because I read on Chinese forums of people in Wuxi who saw KJ-2000 AWACS flying around. This article also agrees with 4 KJ-2000 being stationed in Wuxi along with 2 KJ-200 (surprisingly). The 4 KJ-2000 stationned in Wuxi are clearly in service. It said that one KJ-200 has been painted and the other hasn't. It also seems to agree with other assessment that KJ-200 is developed for the navy.
It also mentions the appearance of the Y-8 ECM type in Wuxi, possibly replacing the old HD5 ECM. HD-5 is already in the museum, so it's clear that Y-8 ECM has replaced it.
more on Y-8 ECM here
In any earlier article, it also mentionned seeing 1 KJ-2000 and 1 KJ-200 in the base in Gansu where China reported had constructed a Taiwanese airbase to do training.

Very Well said, What Pakistan really is trying to do is make an eastern and western arrangement in its security. The western part coming from Europe,America while the Eastern sector comes from China. get this....
Multirole fighters
West- Mirage,F-16 East- JF-17,J-10
Radars
West-TPS-77 East-YLC-6/2
AWACS
west-Erieye awacs East- Y-8 awacs
Pakistan has made this a strategy to avoid any pressure or embargo's. Believe it or not but this is working pretty good. Chinese equipment is getting better and better everyday, with prices much lower than the western equipment...they make a cost effective path for 3rd world nations and they are pleased by their services. In this case chinese Awacs (Y-8) is not too far behind either infact it is not behind at all.
