Pakistan to get delivery of four Mi-35s in 2016

I am sure the PAA might have placed orders for at least 30-50 of them and the news might need some correction. Also, PAA should increase the order of AH-1 Zulu from 15 to 50 and also try to assemble more Z-10s with Chinese help and bring them on table to sell these Z-10s on cost to cost basis.

I am sure if PAA tries more then we can produce or assemble Mi-35s and Z-10s at home.

What I know up-till now there were 36 are on order 12 are provision from which 4 will be delivered as first batch and later will be improved and tuned up on bespoke basis.

No need to put our feet in Mi-35 assembling or any thing only maintenance or at max over hauling facility would be enough.

We will not go beyond 18 Zulus but ATAK and Z-10 will improved in fact ATAK is already a state of the art machine and with new upcoming engine its capability and independence would further grow so our best bet are these 2 ATAK and Z-10.
 
Read it as "first four will be delivered in 2016 and deliveries will continue in that year (and may be next)"

Makes sense. First four will be used to train pilots, engineers, technicians and establish logistics. PA will also need to evaluate them in FATA environment and figure out how best to employ them. You can't just absorb a new weapon overnight. Takes time.

I think the news is not giving full info. 4 might be first batch or else it does not make logistical sense to introduce a new platform and buy just 4.
 
Why do you people jusmp to conclusions so quickly. These 4 are the first batch from the total 36 ordered. Considering the pak army track record when it comes to procurement, have the ever disappointed you? So sit back and watch the show
