Why can't some of you being more gratitude instead of arrogant? The only reason China sent these for free is because the country who asked for it is Pakistan. China may very well give them to Afghanistan, Iraq, a dozen of African countries to gain the so called battle experience and I'm sure they will handle these helo with great delight and thankfulness. But no, only to Pakistan China send these for free. Can the fact tell you something?
First of all, gratitude? Why? I'm not the one you're giving this to, its the PAA. I'm not some stooge you can buy or bully to say what you want, so don't talk down to me as if you're being generous to a homeless man.
Second, why would China give them to Iraq, or Afghanistan? Wouldn't make much sense. Iraq's military is worthless, and has no time to induct a Chinese platform that is completely different to what they're used to with Russian and US platforms. Afghanistan doesn't have the technical know how, nor the money to keep up maintenance, giving these to Afghanistan would be the height of stupidity, as it nay very well end up in the hands of either India or the US, or even worse, the Taliban who'd sell it to the highest bidder. Thankfully, China's military leadership is smart.
Besides, if you have no confidence in a weapon, you will not send it into a battle field. It equals suicide.
It's not about confidence, its about need. This isn't free, as you claim. Pakistan is going to evaluate this platform, as would any nation, and China is going to use this opertunaty to gain valuable data.
It isn't just the Chinese who do this, every arms dealing nation does thus, including the US and Russia. Are you suggesting that China is different and special? From what I can tell, China is no different, nor should it be any different.
Your argument is flaw and the one with tainted eyes and mis info is you. The one need to get thru your thick head is you. How did arty and helo diff? You mean it's an arty so it's trial cert is more strigent while an helo will have a lex procedure without passing standard requirement?
System maybe different but procedure and requirement when in trial are all standardize and no short cut. They all need to pass through a strigent requirement before cert. nothing less.
I can barely even tell what you're writing.
I have presented you with reality, all you've done is present things that gave nothing to do with anything. If you can't tell the difference between the complications and build procedures of artillery and helicopters, then there is no point in talking to you.
Btw, initial and trial testing have nothing to do with combat testing and development, this is why weapons systems evolve. Thankfully, Chinese engineers aren't dumb like you're trying to make them out to be. China's military leaders and defense researchers are smart, and they recognize a good oppertunaty when they see it.
