July 2025, Pakistan began receiving and operating Chinese-built Z-10ME/P attack helicopters, marking a transition from the aging fleet of U.S.-supplied AH-1F Cobras that had served for over four decades. The Z-10ME/P variant, tailored for Pakistan, began arriving at the end of the previous month. Video footage and imagery confirmed its presence on Pakistani soil, including airframes bearing national markings, dark camouflage, and operational equipment.

With six hardpoints, the Z-10ME/P can carry up to 16 CM-502KG air-to-ground missiles with 25 km range and fire-and-forget capability, TY-90 air-to-air missiles designed specifically for helicopter dogfighting, and GR5 guided rockets with sub-2-meter accuracy and an 18-meter kill radius.

This delivery follows years of delays in previous procurement efforts with U.S. and Turkish platforms and represents the shift in Pakistan’s rotary-wing capabilities from Western to Chinese systems. The Z-10ME/P helicopters delivered so far lack the mast-mounted millimeter-wave radar dome, though they are equipped with upgraded engines, countermeasures, and electro-optical systems. While no official announcement has specified the number of helicopters delivered or ordered, at least one aircraft with a visible serial number has been observed, and the type has been deployed in counterinsurgency operations in the Bajaur district.
