Military sales at Le Bourget
Since there is no topic yet on the military sales at Le Bourget, I'll start one. First (at least known to me) sales are announced by India. They have confirmed an order for 10 C-17's, and for 75 PC-7 mkII's.

Second one only in German. This news item confirms the Swiss Bureau for military sales has approved the sale of these planes, since they are unarmed aircraft, and therefore not subject to the strict Swiss law for exporting arms. (they had bad experiences with the sale of PC-7's in the past, which were used by some countries to bomb civilians).
