Bankrupt, starving Zimbabwe orders Chinese fighters

Military sources in Harare say that Zimbabwe will acquire 12 FC-1s as
replacements for the Chengdu F-7s, currently based in Gweru. The FC-1, a
lightweight multipurpose fighter based on Russia's MiG-33, will provide a
credible answer to the challenge posed by the 28 JAS-39 Gripen multi-role
fighters that the SA government has ordered from Saab, the Swedish arms
manufacturer.

The rural population is starving, their currency is not worth the paper it's
printed on, they can't pay their international bills, Mugabe turns away
international food aid saying they have everything under control and don't
need charity, and now this! Who's he plan to use them on, Britian?! Can't
anyone stop this idiot Mugabe?!
