Pakistan-U.S. counterterrorism participation proceeds apace. In November 2004, the Pentagon told Congress of three conceivable major Foreign Military Sales to Pakistan including eight P-3C sea surveillance airplane, 2,000 TOW antiarmor rockets, and six Phalanx maritime firearms. The arrangements could be worth up to $1.2 billion for Lockheed Martin and Raytheon, the prime contractual workers. The Department of Defense described the P-3Cs and TOW rockets as having huge antiterrorism applications (a claim that evoked doubt from a few experts), and it stated that the proposed deals would not influence the military adjust in the district. India's outside undertakings serve later "forewarned the United States" against any choice to offer F-16 contender planes to Pakistan, including that the "U.S. arms supply to Pakistan would negatively affect the goodwill the United States appreciates with India, especially as a sister popular government." Yet, in March 2005, the Bush Administration reported that the United States would continue offers of F-16 contenders to Pakistan following a 16-year rest.
Separatist-related viciousness and fear mongering in Kashmir has expanded in the mid year of 2005. The India-Pakistan peace activity started in April 2003 proceeds, most solidly with a formal truce understanding along the Kashmiri Line of Control (LOC) and the whole universal outskirt (the truce has held for about two years). In April 2005, another transport administration was propelled in the questioned Kashmir district and the Indian and Pakistan pioneers called the reciprocal peace handle "irreversible." However, while New Delhi demonstrates that rates of activist invasion over the LOC are down fundamentally when contrasted with past years, continuous separatist related savagery in India's Jammu and Kashmir state has guaranteed scores of lives and Indian authorities have restored reactions that Pakistan has not acted to take out the "fear based oppressor foundation" on Pakistani domain.
