They will get it once the serial production starts properly, then maybe you can sell your soviet junk to Armenia.

Speaking at the opening ceremony Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan indicating that with these deliveries we are witnessing an extremely important, historical day on behalf of our national defence said: “Meeting the defence system needs of our armed forces through local means has been one of our key priorities since the day we took office and will continue to be so.

Why are you telling fairy tales @xenon54?
Azeri Government is not interested in purchasing your outdated light attack choppers, with their stressed and failed hulldesign. They will go for Russian or Chinese Options. new chinese attack Chopper is made with Eurocopter assitence. It is superb. Top notch engineering quality, and also same price as your turk version italian Mangusta.
You are a funny guy... producing lies and repeating them over and over again, you think some will believe in your BS..... not in our watch

I never lie. I am not of your kind.
Look here, you can clearly see how small the Mangusta is, compared to even AH1 Cobra. Mangusta is the original 1980s design of your T-129 Turk version.
The italian mangusta helicopter was a small light attack helo design for italian military. It never was planned as a heavy attack helo. The hull is just too small. It also lacks a canon.
Italian military later added a 20mm automatic gun to the small airframe. Because they needed it in Iraq, where Italian army controlled a sector of the coalition force.
With this extra added gun, the small hull reached its limits. Italians later abondoned that platform because of too heavy shaking of the firing main gun. They sold the design to turks.
Turks than took the already stressed hull and mounted a foreign made stronger US-engine on it, they also added longer pylons to carry even more payload. And over that, they added a monster of a turkish flir on the nose. It is made with poor engineering capability and twice as heavy as similar western or Russian models.
And now the hull is like an old man with shaky knees. Bolts come lose and main rotor vibrations giving crew enourmos headache.
like always on timei think its russian junk that has some bolt, structure, airframe, engine blabla problems LOL

@LordTyrannus @cabatli_53
I think it can be an interesting discussion if both sides avoid trolling and insulting. I am looking forward to read your discussion about T-129. Also a comparison of T-129 with mil mi 28, mil mi 35-M, and Kamov Ka 50-52 would be good.

like always on time
u forget to put the su crash in turkmenistan
