. . . .
In a perfect world... a sqd of super cobras and in-house production of T-129s would be awesome..


:lol:


Otherwise... instead of getting super cobras... Pakistan should get the T-129... there are several benefits... experience,no issues for spares etc..

These T-129 ATAK Helicopter will be useful, if they do not come down with RPGs or Anti Air Missiles like what Pakistani Taliban and BLA in Baluchistan got from India, US and IsraHell through Deception and Secrecy! We have to know what weapons they have against RPGs and Anti Air Missiles then we have to get these choppers
:sniper::devil::chilli:

Pakistan shall wait for WZ-10.. T-129 still has american parts and Pakistan will still be held ransom to Americans.

WZ-10 designer: armed helicopters are no longer 'weak points' of PLA's equipment - People's Daily Online

BEIJING, November 7 (ChinaMil) -- Armed helicopters, known as "tank killers", of theChinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) used to be taken by the West as the "weakpoints" of the PLA's equipment. In an interview on November 6, 2013 at the ChineseFlight Test Center (CFTC) of the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), WuChengfa, deputy chief designer of WZ-10, pointed out that the statement is no longertenable since the commissioning of Z-10.

Wu Chengfa expressed that Z-10 has highly-advanced overall performance.

Foreign media, such as Jane's Defense Weekly and New York Times, once commented thatWZ-10 is one of the most advanced armed helicopters in the world, even comparable withEurocopter Tiger of Europe and Apache of the U.S. military.

At the Paris Air Show held in June this year, Ma Zhiping, general manager of the ChinaNational Aero-Technology Import and Export Corporation (CATIC), disclosed that WZ-10and WZ-19 attracted great international attention after their air shows at the Zhuhai AirShow 2012, and government approval is required if they are sold abroad in the future.

When asked whether WZ-10 will be sold abroad, Wu Chengfa gave an affirmative answerthat WZ-10 will be exported to other countries in the future.

Omg please stop to posting from Sources that are not True or not Turkish Sources (turkish sources too are not the best!).

If the Turkish Army don´t accept it ,it will not happen that an T-129 will fly for the Army of Turkey.

They can produce so much they want ,if the Army doesn´t accept it ,then is there not a Deal.

The T-129 is on development Stage and is not Finished.

Maybe Pakistan should go for the WZ-10 like JF-17 Thunder.

The T-129 will be better then SuperCobra or maybe too better then AH-Z1 ,but only the later Variants of this Gunship when anything will happen that the SSM want.

But the biggest Problem is that there is no Finished Product for Turkish Army or other Customers.

There is a too a Engine Problem.

These Problems are very Critical and on my Opinion was the ATAK II Project the Mangusta not the best choice that Turkey can get !!!

We should fit this in whole pic, not dedicated for BLA or any other terrorist group, focus on overall requirement, it should be all rounder not like our current cricket team:hitwall:. T-129 or WS-10 both are very good because both comes from our friendly and brother nations.:smitten:

I dont have access to the full article but it looks like the T129 is nearly a done deal now. Interesting tid bit about the Anka UAV. If I am reading it correctly PAC has been contracted to build the airframes. I wonder if the T129 deal could pave the way for co production of Turkey's Indigenous Helicopter Program if and when it materialises. We really do need to bolster our utility/transport/airborne assault helo fleet. Pakistan to collaborate with Turkey on T-129

The Pakistan Aeronautical Complex has signed a work share agreement with Turkish Aerospace Industries, paving the way for any future Pakistani purchase of the T-129 attack helicopter.

‘TAI has contracted us to build frames for their Anka UAV, while we are also looking forward to collaborating with them ...
