This shows Z-10 is capable to handle high attitude plateau combat. Debunk rumor of Z-10 not suitable for this kind of high attitude.

Doesn't really debunk anything. It's a still photograph. The issues could could be the available load for the aircraft at altitude for example none of the helps in the picture are fully loaded.

High altitude is very challenging for helicopters. If Chinese attack helicopters can work well above 5000 with full loads, I believe Pakistan will be very interested. Huge advantage in Kashmir.

Not all helo are allow to high at such high attitude plateau even with empty load. Not to mention combat helo. Only a few are qualify to fly high attitude.

Agree. US army got huge problem in Afghanistan in the first couple of years. Even 4000 is quite challenging for US helos.
