Major General Syed Ali Hamid, Director General of DEPO has informed that for the last two to three years Pakistan had a sustained export of $100 million of armaments whereas prior to the IDEAS it was not more then $ 40 million per annum. He said Pakistan is relatively a "new player" in armaments export with 95 percent shares of Public sector.

Old data indeed, defence exports are touching $500 million mark now.
After the success of it's major developments in the defense industry the Defense Export Promotion Organization (D.E.P.O.) was created to promote Pakistani defense equipment to the world by inviting major and small players to the I.D.E.A.S. Exhibition, which is held annually at the Karachi expo center. In recent reports, the defense exports were worth over $500 million USD in 2006 and growing annually.

According to what so far i have read is. There is no Al-Khalid II as many think. The design will remain same, but improvements are of course to be done. Its like moving from F-16 Block 30 to 40 or so...
