China is offering the likes of sub Saharan, Middle East and Latin American countries a cheaper rival to Boeing AH064D/E with the Z-10ME.Laughingly or not in the article, it mentions Saudi Arabia, Kuwait as potential buyers - they are both Boeing AH-64A/D/SA/E Apache/Longbow Apache/Guardian operators..
Guess we will see what we see.

Cheers

Well it certainly seems to hit a new high (or should that be low) in hippogorillapig ugliness.

Looks fit enough for purpose, from the outside, but it's in the little details that helicopters are successful, or are not.
We'll see if they got it right or not in due course.
