30 is a decent number but not enough.
I hope the Chinese improve Z10ME further (e.g. may be improve the engine) by the time or within a yr or so after the order is fulfilled.
wr would love to see 30 more new Helis in Pak Army. Be it T129 or a further imrpoved variant of Z10ME.
AH1s need to be retired or transferred to the western border to provide some support during ambush or when needed.
