We are talking about army here man...not baf. So it will happen soon. Even they will recieve attack helicopter before baf. Go through army drone tender pdf. Check their requirements. Only Turkish drones (specifically Anka s) matches their requirements. And army already evaluated Turkish drones...
Bro army wont buy more than 20 by 2030..whether its z10 or Apache or t129. Army and Baf, no one is worried about numbers. And I dont have any idea why baf is wasting money on attack helicopters.
There is a reason Pakistan is still waiting for t129. They can easily buy z10 whenever they want but still not going for it. They are keeping it as a last resort. Z10 might look damn good on papers but its actually not that good.
Baf recently bought 5 ex raf c130j and had them upgraded by Marshall adg. Marshall will setup local presence in the form of a service centre or will work inside a BAF base to support the C-130J fleet.
Obviously...we cant afford 14 planes together..I'm talking about grabbing 2/3
By saying "will buy" I meant baf will sign contract. They showed in "shomorasthro prodorshoni" on baf's air defense system plans and awacs was shown there I think. I dont have any source guys. It's a guess and in sha Allah it will come true.
Cause our requirement is low. Baf will replace those F7 with new jets and might open another one or two squadron max. So we will operate max 5/6 squadron of fighters. So opening a factory line up is not profitable for us. Besides Saab wont go for it. They wont give us tot. At least not before 2030.
No something double engine will come. Baf engineers and pilots team visited dassault, leonardo and Boeing plants...they also flew those aircrafts. So one of these three will come I think
The rumor is baf will buy t3 eft's from Raf/Italy air force's existing fleet. Could be 8 could be all.
But...
