Quwa bro might also might wanna look at AW189 augusta westland/leonardo is marketing it as medium multirole.

The PAF chose the AW139 over the S-70 for CSAR, but the Army might be interested in the T-70 as a potential replacement for the Pumas. However, the US engine is going to be a problem, and I don't think neither us nor Turkey are interested in going through the headache.

Leonardo is also offering the AW149, which apparently has commonality with the AW139 and is also available with an ITAR-free Safran engine. Once Leonardo builds a prototype of the military-grade AW149 with the Safran Aneto, I think we'll see it in Pakistan for tests.

Alternatively, the Army can also go Project Azm on this and look to manufacture its own helicopter, possibly even join Turkey's program to develop a helicopter family (i.e., ATAK-2 and 10-ton General Purpose Helicopter).
