Oh.... i get it now, but still these grenades are no rocket science. I mean they could be manufactured if "neek neati" was there.

Okay so, we're not making grenade projectiles but advanced bullets, but what if our future helicopter needs a grenade launcher for some reason? Anyways, aren't these grenades also used at infantry level.....? (i mean as extension of guns)

man we are getting out of cobras why waste money on it ?

I think we should waste money on it so that soldiers at infantry level can be equipped with these grenades as they are beneficial for both conventional warfare and anti-insurgent purposes (please correct me if i'm wrong)

Agree, Cobra helos of Pak Army have 20 mm cannon, rockets and TOW missiles, Grenade Launchers were there with Veitnam era models namely AH-1G, AH-1Q, and AH-1P models, Pakistan has AH-1F models.
20 mm ammunition for Cobra Gatling gun is not manufactured by POF, as these rounds are HE (High Explosive), but for CIWS, (20 mm Gatling) on Navy Ships they are made by POF

Though it was great idea for PAA to gain AH-1s from countries that were operating in 2001 at cheaper cost along with spares from these countries and also from USA and upgrade with US permission with EU electronics at PAC facility Kamra. I am sure then PAA would have at least 70+ Cobras which can be deployed along the border with India and also few in coastal regions.
