The Pakistan Army Aviation officially received the Chinese Z-10ME attack helicopter.

Arrived! Good news from Pakistan, the Pakistan Army Aviation received the Chinese-made WZ-10ME attack helicopters! On July 29, 2025 local time, the Pakistan military forum released a lot of images showing the Pakistan Army Aviation receiving the Chinese-made WZ-10ME attack helicopters. This means that the Pakistan Army Aviation has officially equipped with the WZ-10ME2 attack helicopter. In the pictures, the WZ-10ME2 attack helicopter is equipped with the Chinese-made beyond-visual-range CM series air-to-ground missiles. The Pakistan Army Aviation's WZ-10ME attack helicopter is equipped with more advanced weapons and defense kits, including electronic warfare systems and infrared countermeasures.

The Pakistan Army Aviation's WZ-10ME attack helicopter is missing a "ball", meaning that the first batch did not have a millimeter-wave radar system. The Pakistan Army Aviation also didn't buy the complementary WZ-19 or drones. Without the millimeter-wave radar, this seriously weakens the WZ-10ME attack helicopter's all-weather long-range reconnaissance and strike capability. It is unlikely that every WZ-10ME attack helicopter of the Pakistan Army Aviation will have a "ball"; usually, only a few of them are equipped with a "ball" and share data. We'll wait and see if the Pakistan Army Aviation's WZ-10ME attack helicopter is equipped with a millimeter-wave radar system.

The Pakistan Air Force ordered the J-35 stealth fighter, but it hasn't arrived yet. However, the latest "killing weapon" ordered by Pakistan from China has arrived. The Pakistan Army Aviation ordered the WZ-10ME attack helicopter mainly because the Indian Air Force and Indian Army purchased American-made Apache attack helicopters. Looking at the Pakistan Army's purchase of the WZ-10ME attack helicopter and the Chinese-made CM series long-range air-to-ground missiles, it is to print the Indian armored forces, as the Indian Army has too many T-90 tanks. The WZ-10ME, this M model is a high-altitude terrain modification, after replacing the engine, the weapon pylon increased from four to six, which is much stronger than the original WZ-10.
