Pakistan Army's T-129 ATAK Helicopter Deal | Updates & Discussions.

Sir will this deal be good enough without ToT ? I doubt it our requirement will end at 30 helicopters.....it will be again a.big chance missed from us to start our own helicopter industry
Earlier reports from Aviation Week and Alan Warnes state that Pakistan will acquire some ToT - i.e. parts manufacturing and assembly. PAC will basically partner with TAI.
 
I think PAA together with PAC will try to get some sort of TOT or workshare/partnership to bring the cost down. I think turks will help us with TOT or workshare because they are getting more scale to distribute their development costs.
Without minimum 50 % ToT the deal is not sweet enough at all we have to get our young generation to get high level skilled jobs no just nut and bold fixers even a blind person can do that with directions .... same needs to be done with anything we import the deal needs to be like 50% ToT in 1 st 3 years or max 4 years with further help in r&d ....by the end of 5 years 75% TOT should be transferred then with any future updates
 
I like the way u think brother but they r just not going to hand over everything in tot. To build our skill set we need to invest in joint ventures just like joint fighter 17 thunder and involve local industry to give rise to our own industry base. Cheers
 
If Atak deal is finalized, I think The following capabilities will be most beneficial to Pakistani Land Forces.

1- High-Hot performance of T-129
2- AVCI HMDU (standart on all variants)
3- B2 variant comes with advanced electronic warfare control computers/sensors against almost all type of missile threats.
4- Cost-Effective Cirit missiles ready to use for almost all COIN missions against light armored threats and enemy soldiers/militants/terrorists !

sir if we dont ask we dont get anything....we have to at least try not just give them our money get the helicopter after few years we get in to same senario like we had with usa where we cant get spares or upgrades on time ...
 
PAA must go for with TOT contract.
With 30-40 helicopters required (initially, the final order also going to 60-70 machines AT MAX?) a full ToT is not required. What we need is a decent maintenance/over-haul and up-gradation facility along with some parts manufacturing for TAI as well (to reduce the cost of our purchase). This is the most likely route we will be taking anyway.
 
Well, Ministry of defence production said a few weeks back that All future big contract will be done with TOT.

It will boost our capability in specific weapon building in house.

BIG CONTRACTS!!

Any involvement in production line will be appreciated as it will lead us towards independency.

-Assembly line
-maintenance line
-overhauling
-Parts manufacturing

everything is welcome
