The US Department of War has dismissed reports that said Pakistan will receive AIM-120 Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missiles (AMRAAM) from the world’s biggest military power.
“The Administration would like to emphasize that contrary to false media reports, no part of this referenced contract modification is for deliveries of new Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missiles (AMRAAMs) to Pakistan,” a statement from Washington D.C issued on Oct 10 said.
“The sustainment does not include an upgrade to any of Pakistan’s current capabilities,” the statement added.
The denial comes a day after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi called US President Donald Trump to congratulated the latter for the first phase of a US-brokered peace plan for Gaza, which has now been approved by Israel.
