deffinitely agree with you!T-129 will be cheaper for Poland to operate and they can purchase more of them because the price is lower than the apache other than that I don't see advantages for poland. I don't know much about what type of threat they are seriously preparing for exactly, Russia ok but would Russia actually invade Poland? No. And if they did America would show up with Apaches any way so if we look at it from this perspective T-129 has a chance. Why spend a ton of money acquiring and then maintaining an expensive helicopter like the apache when you can get the cheaper T-129 that can also hold off a Russian attack if it were to occur?
Probably Turkish companies will offer tech transfer and local production.
Poland might choose Turkey. Also they have Agusta Westland facilities, they will be interested to keep it there, as they choose other companies in Utility helicopters..
