To keep logistic simple ( aka affordable ) its best to keep only one aircraft from one source.I still bellieve that T 129 pak army use it along side viper and Z 10 for india we need to replace 60 old helos of cobra we are getting 20 each of z 10 and vipers remaining will be from ATAK i think
the Pakistanis don't like to have one system as that means they are dependent on that on system. yes it may seem like a good idea if you are an accountant but in the world of defence it capability and reality that decides.To keep logistic simple ( aka affordable ) its best to keep only one aircraft from one source.

reluctant transfer tot? Please do not write a comment with certain words about something which you dont have any knowledge.the Pakistanis don't like to have one system as that means they are dependent on that on system. yes it may seem like a good idea if you are an accountant but in the world of defence it capability and reality that decides.
the t129 was a really good option but unfortunately the US rejected to export the engine and Europe will be reluctant transfer tot. so that deal was dead.
so the z10 is most probably going to be the back bone of the armed forces gunship fleet whilst the mi35 will be used for support and the 15 viper helicopters is like the cherry on the cake. its the most advanced helicopter of pakistans fleet.
so why did the t129 deal collaspe?reluctant transfer tot? Please do not write a comment with certain words about something which you dont have any knowledge.
Had Pakistan requested 30-40 units? The cost of 30-40 units would've been 2-2.5 billions and Pakistan wouldn't be willing to spend this much on one platform. I have no insight but I suspect we would've asked for the same number which we've got.
your right. also with pakistan wanted tot with the helicopter which it does. then it must also seek european approval but this has been sort of by passed by turkey making some of the systems. but with every thing being high tech and sensitive, there will always be strings if such a deal were to happen.Any sales of T129 by Turkey is subject to grant of US licence for the engine. Negotiations are underway between Turkey and US.

I mentioned " Europe will be reluctant transfer tot" from your comment which is completely a false information.nearly all the critical subsystems has designed and produced by orginally turkish companies.and With the Collaboration Agreement signed with AgustaWestland, TAI.(Turkey) shall have;Intellectual property rights of the new configuration of the helicopter,Sole sourcing rights in the world for the fuselage, including Final Assembly and Flight Operations,Sales rights for the whole world excluding Italy and England .

i believe my sources, also OSCAR mention this and he has a good reputation for being correct. you may have property rights to the t129 but not to the parts that tai does not build, most obvious example engine the ir-sensor on the top of the rotor blades and other sensors and avionics of course you build some/most in house but there are some that you don't.I mentioned " Europe will be reluctant transfer tot" from your comment which is completely a false information.nearly all the critical subsystems has designed and produced by orginally turkish companies.and With the Collaboration Agreement signed with AgustaWestland, TAI.(Turkey) shall have;Intellectual property rights of the new configuration of the helicopter,Sole sourcing rights in the world for the fuselage, including Final Assembly and Flight Operations,Sales rights for the whole world excluding Italy and England .

does tai build the rotor blades and are the composite blades ?
