We can arm them in Pakistan, our defence-industry is capable to arm them, but it seems there is no interest for that, I am saying this since years.... Arming make only sens for the selfdefence of the Helicopter !


The afghans have armed all their MI-8 and MI-17 fleet checkt this:

I think from a prospective of heli own defence ..Mi 17 should be armed

No the US is not operating but buying the Mi-17 for the Afghans ca. 50 or more, and the US did order all with armed board guns, Besides that all US-Chinoks (fat guy of the US) which were involved in in Afghanistan operations were equipped with board machine guns. Arming them means not to use them as attack Helicopters ! But when the Mi-17 is in the battle zone and has to land or take of and come under fire, would the board gun not give the crew suppressive defensive fire to fly out of the hot zone ?......In the US-Vietnam war, Soviet-Afghan war, US-Afghan war and Pakistan-TTP war such expirience/scenarios were routine in the past.
