  • In 2015 the Pakistan Army ordered 12 Bell AH-Z Viper attack helicopters, with an option of 3 more to replace its ageing AH-1F Cobras and were to be delivered by 2017.[154][155] Following cancellation of $300 million military aid to Pakistan by the US government in 2018, the helicopters were put into storage at Davis-Monthan AFB, Arizona.[156][157] The reasoning for this cancellation by Trump was due Pakistan's support for groups like Lashkar-e-Tayyiba. In 2020 Pakistan considered ditching the Bell AH-Z Viper deal for either Turkish or Chinese helicopters.[158] By 2022 Pakistan fully ditched this deal for Turkish T129 ATAK and Chinese Z-10ME Helicopters.[159][160] The 12 Bell AH-Z Vipers which were meant for Pakistan, are now planned to be sold to Ukraine instead as of 2024.[161]
  • 3 CAIC Z-10 attack helicopters of China were delivered for trial use so that orders could be made in the future.[162]
  • In 2018, following trials, Pakistan ordered 30 T129 ATAK helicopters from TAI. Following US reluctance to grant Turkey the necessary export licenses for the LHTEC CTS800-4A engines, Pakistan extended the delivery deadline by one year.[163][164][165]
