There's another news from China DoD website ... the news said now All PLA Army already equip WZ-10 armed helos.

据国防部网8月6日报道，直十武装直升机正式列装西部战区陆军第13集团军某陆航旅，这标志着我军所有陆航作战部队全部列装这款国产先进攻击型直升机。新型陆军机动作战立体攻防的战略目标也在逐步成为现实。
作为我国国产武装直升机的翘楚，直10已经跨入世界先进武装直升机的行列。先进的光电观察系统和红箭10反坦克导弹，令直10拥有不逊于任何同行的“坦克杀手”能力，而世界首种专用直升机格斗空空导弹“天燕90”的配备，更让武直10具备了世界独一份的直升机空战能力。

8月6日，陆军第13集团军某陆航旅隆重举行直10授装仪式。自此，我军所有陆航作战部队全部列装这款国产先进攻击型直升机。“专业”的武装直升机代替了“兼职”的通用直升机，陆军的鹰隼有了更为锋利的爪牙。

陆军副司令员彭勃中将宣读授装命令。

此次授装的陆航旅，近年来在川西高原、滇西高原、雪域高原三个不同海拔高度上，圆满完成了高原起降、实弹射击、战术对抗等12个重难点课目试训攻关，探索形成了高寒山地条件下机动蛙跳、连续突击、低空隐蔽等20余项打法战法，实现了陆军航空兵高原环境下新装备训练实战化、常态化。此次授装仪式，既是对陆军航空装备建设成果的总结回顾，也是对陆军未来新质作战力量前景的憧憬展望。经过30年不懈奋斗，他们实现了中国陆军航空装备建设的重大突破，这也标志着中国陆军直升机规模实现了新飞跃，标志着陆军战略转型建设迈上了新起点，更标志着中国陆军航空力量建设迈入新阶段。

Very nice that this 1,000th helo is a really indigenous product too!
That should silence naysayers about copy-reverse engineering.

GFY, China! Tay.

I think the number including 200+ of Mi8/Mi17 from Russia
The most quantitive model should be Z-9, a light helicopter, licensed variant of AS365
And at least 100 of other models of Eurocopter.

That's S-70 sold from U.S during U.S-China honeymoon time.

这是我们自己研制的哦
很早就在东北进行 抗寒低温测试了
你真不不知道消息？
蜜月期的黑鹰就卖给我们的就几架哦

Oh sure BoQ! No problem there, even the US uses foreign choppers.
The idea I was noting is that the WZ-10 is a local product.

We have seen in the past some countries boast of hallmarks obtained
by inducting locally assembled imports, oblivious to the ridicule.

This is not the case here, that pitfall was avoided. That Russian helos
are being replaced with Chinese products shows the mil industry in fact
to be progressing correctly. Hence the kudos!

Have a great day, Tay.

Actually, majority of the 1,000 helicopter force is from overseas.

China have

255 Z-9 (Which is Eurocopter AS-356)
53 AS-350
93 EC-120
252 Mi8/Mi-17
4 Mi-26
20 S-70

On the other hand, they have

100 WZ-10
50 Z-8
40-50 Z-11
100 Z-19 (AS-356 Variant)

Home made helicopter

1. Z-9 is licence to mass produce in China, engine & system made in China not from Europe. Z-9 is the most number in PLA Army.

2. Home made helo numbers more than ur count.

Z-9 Helicopter is not from overseas Factory.
They all made in China Factory, from Engine to System. Made in China's Factory.

And Your Number for WZ-10 and WZ-19 Combat Helicopter is Wrong.



My Suggestion for you, Don't Read Wiki*edia too much

1. Z-9 is licence to mass produce in China, engine & system made in China not from Europe. Z-9 is the most number in PLA Army.

I wonder the difference between China domestic engines and TurboMeca engines.
As I read Z-10 can't reach the max performance because less power engines ( adopted from WZ-9 engine)

 

[Brainsucker]

Well, 1.000 is a progress. We can expect them to have more in near future.
