Sri Lankan Air Force has still  not made up its mind in this regard, it said. It quoted,  Sri Lankan Air Force spokesperson, Wing Commander Gihan Senevirathne as  saying that ‘although both Pakistan and China have indicated the  availability of the fighter jet and proposals have been submitted on the  availability of the aircrafts, SLA has not made any decision on  purchasing them.’</blockquote>
