Pakistan Army Aviation transport fleet is a bit weak. For the relief missions of 2005 Earthquake and 2010 floods we've to rely on US Army and Marines helicopters.


Pakistan should acquire heavy and medium lift helicopters to support combat and other missions.

Agree, that need to addressed on serious ground in any war and natural disaster heavy/medium helis role is very imp

I have always supported (performance wise) T-129 over Z-10 for past three years...
Last year was bit grim when I learnt that Z10s are back and are in trials...

NH-90 or AW101 if funds permit it, US Option for medium / heavy is out as previous requests for CH-47 were denied, S-70 was not even entertained or deemed too expensive.

The Z10 and Z10ME are two different beasts. The "ME" exceeds the T-129 in all aspects, and is nearly, as good as the Zulus.

This is what is publicly available, the rest you dont deserve to know.


Major General Syed Najeeb Ahmed, commander, army aviation, told Defence IQ’s International Military Helicopter conference in London on 26 February.“We are looking at other options. One of them is in China in the shape of the new attack helicopter they have created called the Z-10ME,” he says.
Pakistan had previously evaluated an earlier version of the CAIC Z-10, but Ahmed says the latest iteration has improved weapons and systems.
