Turkey always does joint defence deals with pakistan like the miglem corvette also.
much of the helicopter is going to be manufactured in pakistan, turkey always shares its technology with themMy point was you are very complacent when it comes to product development.
Also it is assembled, not manufactured.
Not possible for such a small order & they don't have the industrial base to absorb the technology.much of the helicopter is going to be manufactured in pakistan, turkey always shares its technology with them
Chinese helicopter engines are not upto the mark and failed regularly.So the Chinese helicopters that were tested not upto the mark. This is quite an expensive deal.
India is getting Apache helicopters, India is also assembling them locally.Pakistan are getting NATO attack helicopter.
Are we getting total 22 apache or 39? Even if its 39, the number seems too low. They should have gone for a minimum 80.India is getting Apache helicopters, India is also assembling them locally.
LCH is also a capable helicopter, I think India is going to get 39.Are we getting total 22 apache or 39? Even if its 39, the number seems too low. They should have gone for a minimum 80.
I haven't heard any news about LCH for a long time. Is it in trials? Is it about to be inducted anytime soon?LCH is also a capable helicopter, I think India is going to get 39.
According to TAI (via MSI Turkish Defence Review)[1], the Pakistan Army evaluated the T129 P6 in hot temperature conditions, high-altitude and, for a specific period, with limited logistics support. In Multan, it was 47° Celsius, while in Pano Aqil (another area where the T129 P6 was flown) it was 50° C. During its deployment test, the helicopter was put in a hangar in Quetta, an area where it did not drop below 48° C, through the night. The TAI team did not have access to spare parts and ground support equipment (GSE). From there, TAI flew the T129 to Himalayas, where the P6 was successfully flown at 14,000 ft at 23° C. It returned to Quetta, spending another night without its GSE. The final major test required TAI to directly fly the T129 from Quetta to Multan – i.e. 480 km – without any refueling.Having a high service ceiling does not mean a helicopter will do well in high altitudes ops.
Many helicopters have high service ceiling but there is big difference in operating over plains at 15000+ feet high and over mountains at 15000+ feet high.
LCH has been purpose built for high altitude ops over the Himalayas. And that makes a big difference compared to other helicopters.
What LCH has gone through during trials in the Himalayas I doubt T129 has gone through such conditions till date be it during testing or operations.
Bhai we will see lsp of lch soon ...10 for iaf ..5 for army total 15 lch ....and full production in 2020 ...I haven't heard any news about LCH for a long time. Is it in trials? Is it about to be inducted anytime soon?
