Oh fantastic.

China is developing by leaps and bounds, for PA this gunship is a no brainer - quality build, well designed, tough, durable and nice looking. Add the Chinese cost benefit and the Q is why would the PA buy anything else? Yes the only Qs would be engine reliability and power, and avionics. The WZ-10 will not have the electronics in the Longbow but I am sure it is not too far either, hence the weapon is a must buy and due to the cost benefit and the C-P friendship rates, the PA can buy these in bulk - around 4 squadrons 72+ machines would do wonders for the offensive doctrine of the PAA. Now if only we can get the PA to wake up and modernise.

Will some one shed some light T-129 (Turkey) VS WZ10A ?

As you mention light.. Meaning a 4.6tons attack helo vs a 7 tons attack helo. In term of protection offer and payload, WZ-10A will be far better than T-129.

first of all , t-129 is a 5 ton helicopter, yes it is light helicopter but this also means it can accelerate rapidly, and has more rate of climb. wz 10 has 1500 kg payload on the other hand
t-129 has more than 1200 kg payload capacity which is enough to carry any weapon that attack helicopter needs. and t-129 is more manuverable due to its more powerful engines and being light. It uses all modern technology of today and near future. you can also check the atak 129 videos if you want you will understand what I mean

Not neccessary truth. WZ-10 uses a 1350sph shaft which is more powerful than T-129. Heavy does by mean less agility. You need to look at the design and engine uses. flight performance of WZ-10 proves its very manuverable. WZ-10 included a very advance point and shoot HMS which only euro Tiger is comparable.

One of the Chinese fellows had mentioned that WZ-10 doesn't have an export version yet. China is also procuring WZ-10s to meet its requirements at this stage. We are not sure but there is a high possibility that development and export time-frame would have played a role in decision making.

Pakistan at this moment doesn't need another platform all we need to do is upgrade our Cobras and get extra from US through EDA that is sufficient for the next 7 years. Nawaz is all butter about T-129 we really don't need it at this point like I explained there is no EDA from Turkey and the price tag for a single T-129 is 225 crore appx rupees that is without spares/life time support costs would want to spend that much when your country needs it for health/education/security/emergency food supplies/disaster.

Keeping the discussion of our requirements aside, era of reliance on USA is over. It was never a dependable supplier for us but now in China, India and Pakistan equation, it is even more undependable.

WZ10 has much more room for updation than T129.

 

[Nishan_101]

WZ-10 is a new design as well unlike T-129 which is being improved by Turkey....

PAA will go for WZ-10
