A closer look at Pakistan's Z-10 Choppers

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

One Billion dollar for 15 odd Zulu is ridiculous , we are better off requesting a money refund instead and getting Chinese Helicopters in bulk

a) Has machine gun
b) Has rockets
c) Has air to air missiles
d) Has radars
e) Two seater like Zulu

This is ideal platform for Attack helicopter for Pakistan put to test

Pakistan operating Z-10 only for China because Chinese wants to test their machines on war. Even helos come without front guns.

We are acquiring them for our needs not because china wants to test their machines. Lame statement.

What is the reason for procuring both Z 10s & AH-1Z ? Is it for diversification?

Are there any plans on upgrading the current AH-1Ss & AH-1Fs

Z10 still no where in test zone.....Only Cobra in action.

Z-10s will become workhorse of Army aviation and AH-1Z will form top tier of the fleet. Weapon package associated with AH-1Z are also in mind alongside diversification.

Why do they look so flimsy in face of Hind-E...

With 40 WZ-10 Pakistan Should also go For WZ-19E A Light Attack Helicopter

WZ-10



WZ-19E

WZ19 is a light scout helicopter and has no cannon.
It was meant to be used to scout for the WZ10 and work alongside it. I don't think we need a light scout helicopter since we already have Fennecs.

Why do they look so flimsy in face of Hind-E...

If we can get South African ATE upgraded Super Hinds, we won't need anything else.

They even swap out the somewhat under powered Yak-B 12.7mm Gatling gun on the front and put a 20mm G-I 2 auto cannon.

Also, there was a ATE Superhind MK.V with a AH1 Cobra cockpit!

And contrary to what everyone's info-graphics and news showing pictures, all of them are the ATE Super-Hind, while we're getting the Mi-35 which does not have a 20mil, but is still stuck with the under powered 50 Cal Gatling. Unless we can get the Hind's GUV-8700 gunpods, our hinds will be very under powered at long ranges and will have to fly right over the enemy to actually hit something with the 12.7

GUV-8700 is what happens when a Russian high on Vodka thinks his hind doesn't have enough bang bang:

Put two of these gunpods on one hind, and it has 80mm rockets, 4 7.62mm Gas operated Miniguns, 3 12.7mm Gatling guns and ATGMs.
I sure as hell wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of that hind.

Sir Z-10 not purchased by Pakistan they are here of evaluation and China wants to test their ability in real life operation like zarb e azb.

Hi,

Guy you are very smart---I don't know if anyone pointed it to you that they also came without rotors as well.

If photos shows Z-10 fuselage without guns it does not mean that they came without guns, simply that they have not yet been fully assembled. Unless offset by weight, it will be almost impossible to fly the chopper without the guns as it will severely impact the center of gravity.
