Zarvan, Z10 deal is dead for now and for coming few years.Reports are that Z-10 returned to Pakistan after few improvements. Now reports suggest they may have been used along Baluchistan Afghanistan Border to send some gifts to ISIS dumbos
Yes Z-10 had issues and early last year we returned them but few months back they came back I don't know with what improvements but they came back my guess is they most likely came up with new engine the WZ-15. What I know is right now Z-10 is being tested in real situations. Even I am confused about How many helicopters we are going for and failing to understand Army leadership mindset but Z-10 is again under going testing.Zarvan, Z10 deal is dead for now and for coming few years.
Z10 not only had engine issues, but its canon was prone to getting jammed, and on couple of occasions the missile didnt fired after command given.
So engine and the gun were major problems which couldnt be resolved in time and army went with T129s.
So T129s, Mi35s and Zulus are the future fleet assets.
Someone claimed they didn't leave in first place. WZ-15? are you sure? they just went to China, changed the engine and came back flying like nothing happened? I don't think you understand how change of engines work. It's not some Pakistani Mistry (mechanic) who just changes a car engine overnight.Yes Z-10 had issues and early last year we returned them but few months back they came back I don't know with what improvements but they came back my guess is they most likely came up with new engine the WZ-15.

Well for now its dead, totally dead. T129 final, they r coming, just shared a pic of 1 which is in Pakistan.Yes Z-10 had issues and early last year we returned them but few months back they came back I don't know with what improvements but they came back my guess is they most likely came up with new engine the WZ-15.

They weren't tested in Pakistan. We just bought it keeping in view Cobras legacy in PAA, its use by USMC in Afghanistan as its battle provenSo far there has been a news blackout about the Zulus, I assume they are on track to be delivered as per the T&Cs of the contract and license of approval by the US. However, I have not read any news on how these birds were selected by the army, when and where these birds tested like the Z10s and the T129?
That is my guess may be you are right but what I have heard is they were returned but after few months Z-10 was back. Even I am confused if T-129 is coming and order already placed what is the point of having Z-10 being tested. It could be for China also. May China wants its helicopter to pass the tests in worst conditions and we offer those conditions. From most hot temperature on face of the earth to an enemy which often needs gift from these helicopters. If they pass our tests it could help them sell to other countries if not PakistanSomeone claimed they didn't leave in first place.

It could be a very sane decision IMO to replace aging Talons (or CF-5)with JFT BPakistan's defense minister Rana Tanvir Hussain said , Pakistan's planning to buy 4 Milgem Corvette and 30 Atak Helicopter, also Turkey evaluate to purchase of JF-17 fighter jets, that AA review. So behind closed doors very serious collaborations could be on desk.

Israel lobby works well but Turkey will take its own F35s. Turkey's hand is not empty.It could be a very sane decision IMO to replace aging Talons (or CF-5)with JFT B
What do you lot think? As the fate of F-35 seems a bit dull atm
