Pakistan Army : Unmanned / Manned Air Assets

This particular Mil Mi-6 seen here, was sent to Pakistan in 1967 for trials, and was the only unit sent to Pakistan by the USSR.
Unfortunately in 1968 (roughly a year later), the helicopter crashed in Northern Pakistan (either Kashmir or Gilgit) and was destroyed, hence ending its chapter.

Doesn't these looks like very small even for an FPV capable of carrying grenade or mortar shell ? Or are they just scale down models ?
 
696 - A historical helicopter

For many of you in Pindi and specially living in or around Askari 14, you might have seen a helicopter perched on one of the chowks. However hardly some of you (less the keen aviators) would know that this particular helicopter SA-315 LAMA tail no 696 was involved in one of the most audacious high attitude rescues of all time. Below is the story (added with some masla naturally):

In the world of military aviation, there are missions that test your training, and then there are missions that rewrite history. On August 10, 2005, two Pakistani military pilots defied the laws of aerodynamics, physics, and nature itself to execute what remains one of the most daring high-altitude helicopter rescue in mountaineering history.
