Friend, WZ 10 already in service

I know but I always wait for formal introduction as that means there is a sizable amount in service like 50-100.

Heck, the initial batch of WZ-10s were supposed to enter service in 2008, but engine problems delayed it

Now that shows China inducted both LCH and Heavy which is Z-10 and they both look derived from Z-9 or at least 1 ... I may be wrong but I guess this because Pakistan have bought Z-9C although its another deal but still I think all our defense deals are related to each other and I smell them in Pakistan as in case of derivative they must share the parts as well ... and we can see that these are inducted which means these are mature enough ... so can any Chinese friend shed some light a possibility of Pakistan ending up having these at home ...

That means that the WZ-10 probably won't be deployed in astronomical numbers due to the rapid pace of the supposed WZ-12

Do you have any concrete information on the WZ 12? Could you please post some information. If the source is Chinese could you translate some of it.
