Z-20 is basically a medium lift TRANSPORT Heli,we are yet to see a anti sub version of Z-20 @Pakhtoon yum

I just want the 3 branches to stick to one frame and build up on that instead of getting small number of aircraft from foreign countries.

What do Pakistan Marines get ?

Exactly. At least Marines should be decently armed, which i am sure would be in pipeline.

No you're wrong about the timings. The post below puts explains it nicely and now I remember reading on PDF and he also included the reference so you cannot deny it.

I believe I have stated the same thing.
Milgum are highly modernized according to PN demands, hence more time for R&D.
Type-54AP on the other hand are comparatively less customized wrt to standard variant already operational. Hence less R&D and less time.
Plus, China has much higher production capacity in comparison of Turkey, hence it will be delivering 2 Frigates per year and complete the deliveries even before arrival of Milgums.

What do Pakistan Marines get ?

More hovercrafts?

 

[DOTO for life]

Need couple of destroyers as well.

 

[Bullzz]

More hovercrafts?

Nope. They should be transform into Mechanized Force with equipment required for armoured warfare.

 

[Ra's al Ghul]

what about having a N-submarine on lease with china ?

 

[HRK]

At least someone has that strategic sense.

The one's serving are duffers.

Sir its not about serving personal in case of Navy, I mean what chief and his team could do if he do not have enough budget even to meet operational expenses of the service; all of our governments including the military governments in past have displayed attitude of sea blindness at its finest, hack they didn't even bother to develop proper merchant navy fleet despite the fact that Pakistan is situated at the one of most important global sea route, just look at PNSC they do not have sufficient number of oil tankers nor bulk LPG carriers

During this 70+ years after creation of Pakistan our economic managers developed only one functional port and remained ignorant about the fact that we have 1,100 km coastline, neithet a proper shipbuilding industry is eastablished.

You name just one thing related to a coastal economy or sea based economy which either we have not ruined or ignore completely

It had made its maiden flight already.

And it would be carried by Type 055 and upgraded Type 052D DDGs soon.

[khanasifm]

4 ton z-9 with 400 km range to 10-11 ton z-20 with ~1000 km range options

The big question is what the helo platform for 054a/p and Turkish vessels ordered ?

Even damen ships has medium lift helo capability up to 10 ton deck

The PN will probably acquire either the Z-20 or the NH90 to equip the 054A/P, MILGEM and Damen Corvettes. The winning helicopter for those 3 ships will also replace the Sea Kings in the troop transport/marines role. SAR and all other utility roles will go the replacement of the Alouette III (either AW139 or T625).

Uptill now only the AW101 is being considered as a replacement for the Sea Kings.
Z-20 is at a very early stage, so cannot be evaluated in comparison.
NH-90 is not being considered at the moment as it has some restrictions.
