there are no more frequent updats regarding the WZ-10 and the T-129

PA best go for a few more Cobras of these are offered a low bargain.
in order to add a power punch and diversity, PA must select atleaset 20 T-129 or WZ-10. this can well turn out to be the turning factor

apparantly the chinese WZ-10 a medium attack helo, is entering PLA service albeit at a slow rate - 8-10 examples. it is capable to fire the HJ-10 (chinese version of the Hellfire AGM). it has a 30mm chain gun.

Army Aviation Base at Ghazi, Tarbella has two squadrons stationed there, 21 squadron having night capable MI-17 helos and 28 squadron having SA330 puma helos, received from UAE.
21 squadron is also called QRS, (Quick Reaction Squadron), as it has the characteristic to be able to launch MI-17s in any emergency with SSG guys on board. That is why the squadron is placed so close to SSG installations at Tarbella.

Any information about Pakistan ARmy interested in any attack helicopter ??

two options;

1- the AH-1Zulu - may be available by 2014 (if US/Pak relations dont deteriorate anyfurther) to replace the AH-1S/F models.
2- the WZ-10 med. attack helo from china (however in performance it remains inferior to the AH-64 Apache)
