Maybe one area it Lacks but that can be corrected in future VariantsBut I still want MMR on LCH. Thats a major drawback.
The Biggest problem with any USA weapon is Sanctions which they keep imposing on us .BTW, I don't suppose Pakistan is going to order attack helicopters from multiple sources because Turkey/Pakistan like countries don't have such luxury to waste own resources to order different kind of attack helicopters from various countries which costs too much for maintenance, training and logistics.
USA advantages: Having a family of Cobra series in Pakistani inventory would decrease training and maintenance costs.
Chinese advantages: Gifted 3 attack copters.
Turkish advantages: Offering gift + ToT
bcz i work with indians thats y i know them
This is hardly something to brag about, this is more indicative of poor planning and limited budgets and this is just a maintenance and logistical headache for the PAA in the long term. Massive armies like the US and Russia actually only operate 1 or 2 types of attack helo NOT five.Most powerful Army Aviation in the region from Middle east to Asia Pacific will use 5 attack helis and all for different purposes. U.S. and Russia are the only countries who are using 5X Gunship platforms rest of all are 3X like France and Britian... In our region Pakistan will become 1st .... hellya!

The US State Department has approved Pakistan’s request to purchase US-made attack helicopters, missiles and other equipment valued at almost $1 billion, aimed at fighting insurgent’s in the country.
US defence companies are currently involved in a three-way tussle with Russia and China to sell weapons to Pakistan which is further complicated by the need to avoid upsetting India and its even larger arms’ import market.

I was directly quoting @Stealth who stated as much, I was not saying that number was accurate.When did Pakistan said it will be operating 5 attack helos?
Wait, as usual, nothing of substance.
