Seriously, you should do your research.

AgustaWestland has an assembly and flight line in Yeovil UK.
ok ignore my argument but they are not involved in R&D of choppers and even if they have fleet of AW we can't afford
 
they are not involved in R&D of choppers

Yes they are.

AgustaWestland receives development funds from the British govt for R+D activities in the UK as do many aerospace companies (airbus and rolls-royce get the most).

Most of is received under the guise of RLI or Repayable Launch Investments.

Those of you who follow world trade/economics will probably have heard of the WTO trade dispute between the EU and US (airbus and boeing) where these funds are referred to as "launch aid".

These numbers from a FOI I made aren't up to date, but it does give you an idea as to how much the British Govt puts into the aerospace industry. The total is likely to be approaching £4 billion. Of course, it has benefits for both the companies and countries as industry gets access to funds whilst the country gets the technology/expertise/royalty payments on sold products:

we dont need a light armed helo. we need as a minimum what the super-cobra can deliver.

Cobras or Super Cobras are obsolete sir. Look how much shit we have to dig through to get the spares for them. At this stage any US equipment is a no-no.

European ones might be an option, but only if the contract is signed on Pakistan's terms : That no restriction on the use and upkeep of the assets, whether peace or war.

Of course, no body buys attack choppers for peace.
