the options for helicopters are their from a long time but someone needs to sit down with not just the all three branches of military..you have to add paramilitary forces the police and the civilian government as well because they need helicopters too and every single one of them are going for different helicopters which is the most stupid thing to do.
i did had a discussion with a senior member bilal khan (quwa) few weeks back about South African Rooivalk Attack Helicopter and Atlas Oryx Medium sized utility helicopter both have similar parts, both being based on Aerospatiale SA 330 PUMA easy to use and will save country a lot of money and you can easily get manufacturing rights from airbus and south Africa as both airbus and south africa are looking for partnership in these helicopters .
all you need is to open a combine tender for attack,medium and light helicopters to be manufactured in Pakistan can it be done yes it can be done but for that you need people who are loyal to Pakistan and who have got strong will power which these days our top military and civilian brass lack because both have got price tag of 10%.
