TAI/AgustaWestland
A derivative version of the Agusta A129 Mangusta, the T129 is being developed by Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI), with AgustaWestland as the primary partner.
didn't you see that ' " ' symbol. Forget my point about it as you didn't get it. If you call your military/defence officials idiots at a public thread in a international forum...I'd doubt about your respect to your country's military/defence as their the skillful personnel about choosing wheter which one, not you or me.
LOL ... I would love to ask you the same if your military, having bad economy, poke its nose in a deadliest war like WOT just because of International / US pressure.
and for T-129, you said it right that its the only available chopper at NATO standard that Pakistan can have with TOT but we may not have a choice to use EU / US weapons on it except of Turkish made. No EU / US country will provide their weapons to Pakistan because of Chinese factor and Indian pressure (Since Indians are in Western market for long and they know how to play their CRY BABY card, they even used it France for JFT upgrades and succeeded).
Apart from these two factors third and the most experienced factor of ours is the "STRINGS" that are for sure attached to western weapons and we are still experiencing it with the F-16s.
I respect Turk-Pak friendship and mutual cooperation in many fields but this wouldn't be a wise decision because future is China not EU / US.
This would be a great deal!!! Thank you our Turkish brothers. WE LOVE YOU!!! cheers!!
There is fatal flaw in one of your base assumptions, Turkey matters a way lot more than India to the EU. A way lot more. They may have certain problems with accessions, however, both Turkey and the EU are joined at the hip. Literally.
Many people here including me were denying the same fact for France at the time of JFT upgrade deal and yet we were slapped by them to make a history. Its not about the EU actually but the US, who can pressurise its ally to do whatever it want. Have you forgotten the Armed Falco - UAV version, that couldn't go through due to US influence.
China is much safer and reliable compared to any of US - Ally (sorry turk bros but have to say it).
I don't think there is a need to involve PAF in this deal......army aviation would be more appropriate ..........
anyway a good news.....

You missed the point, those officials were from PAC kamra, so we are looking the possibility of JV, and kamra has the capability, i dont think of any Army run factory with said capabilities.
