Pity, WZ-19 was not designed a gun on its body.
WZ-19 works with WZ-10 armed helicopter, to compose of high-low attacks for PLA Army.

Simply stunning. Lovely pictures and the quality of the workmanship is brilliant. The finishing is top dollar, and looks like a work of art, lovingly designed and put together, the engineering akin to German manufacturing and it is good to see our main arms supplier improving like this. It gives confidence to buy such weapons, that it will last and be reliable and perform well. As the saying goes, if it looks good and feels good, it probably is good. Pleas post more pictures.

COme on. Keep the India bashing away. I hope this thread do not turn into some who vs who thread and go downhill. Let us just admire the beauty of Z-19 attack helo.

You are correct in asking for members to avoid the bashing of other people's endeavours. However, there is a tiny part in all of us that recognises the gulf in quality between these two machines. But both efforts are remarkable and kudos to both China and India for developing and building these gunships, alas I wish I could say the same for PK; maybe if China is kind enough, we could do a TOT.

Great point. I fully agree with you. Excessive trolling gets really tiresome. We will disagree most of the time but let's try to keep our discussion civil.

I wish that military-morons here in Pakistan stop considering (vintage design) AH-1Z as their next attack chopper and put the available money in this beastly-beauty.
I'm totally in love with this chopper

One AH-1Z cost can buy a WZ-10 and a WZ-19.
