China is set to sell autonomous robot-military technology capable of lethal targeted strikes to Middle Eastern regimes, according to United States Secretary of Defense Mark Esper. Concerns over the use of these weapons are being raised by the Pentagon. China exporting self-regulated lethal drones to the Middle East, a region already ravaged by decades of war, risks intensifying the bloodshed.

The Centre for New American security said in a report that the Chinese company Ziyan is negotiating to sell Blowfish A2, a killer robot capable of 60 millimeter mortar shells or a 35-40 millimeter grenade launcher, to the governments of Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.

In addition, China is now marketing Blowfish A3: a helicopter drone with multiple machine guns incorporated to perform combat missions with targeted precision strikes, fixed locations and time detections. China’s state-owned newspaper, The Global Times, has described the creation of the new ‘killer robot’, Blowfish A3, as “a different aerodynamic design allowing the gun to shoot at more angles mid-flight”.

China could lead the way in this technology. Drones will be the fighter jets of the future.

I have also heard from a source, Pakistan may also recieve maneuverable hypersonic missiles. The S-400s would render useless.
 
you should know that we are surrounded by some "good" neighbors.

Touché. But still I'd rather we focus on development of our people.

We have a capable military (the whole Abhinandan saga); but what we really need is improvement in Pakistanis' living standard, instead of a weapons' race. Only the western countries/China/Russia benefit from massive weapon sales.
