Argentina?! That's new...
Not surprising at all. Argentina not possible to buy French weapon with possible after sales support block on request from UK.

China Z-9 after technical upgrade will be far more advance than original French AS365 and with possible generous installment plan by China. It will not be surprise if JF-17 or JL-9G fighter jets enter service wiith AAF.

Of course Z-9 is great. It is just the first time i hear Argentina did so. I wonder how many they did purchase.

UAE allegedly using Chinese drones for deadly airstrikes in Libya

chaos in Libya after its leader Muammar Gadaffi was overthrown in 2011, Haftar established control over the eastern region of the country before launching a surprise attack on Tripoli four weeks ago.

The UAE previously supplied the general with air support from a base it set up at Al Khadim in eastern Libya in 2016, and its Chinese drones were reportedly used to strike Derna last year as Haftar battled Islamic militants there.

Following his attack against the Tripoli militias supporting U.N.-backed leader Fayez al-Sarraj, 376 people have died in Tripoli and 45,000 have fled, with air raids on Saturday night killing four.

“The fact the raids are at night, combined with eye witness reports, make it very likely these are the UAE’s Chinese drones,” said Aniseh Bassiri Tabrizi of the Royal United Services Institute in the U.K. “The UAE has also used them in Yemen, although there they coordinated with the U.S., while in Libya they are breaking a U.N. embargo on supplying arms to the country.”

A website published photos on Monday allegedly showing the remains of Chinese Blue Arrow 7 missiles, which can be fired from Wing Loong II drones, amid wreckage in Tripoli.

"It would be possible to fly these drones from Al Khadim, which is about 460 miles from Tripoli, with a pilot at the base, and a mobile ground station set up closer to Tripoli acting as a relay to enable the radio control of the drone,” said Justin Bronk, also with the Royal United Services Institute.

"The pilots will probably be UAE nationals,” he added. Added Bassiri Tabrizi: “Another Syria now looks possible in Libya.”
