What about Iranian Helicopters to Pakistan?

No large scale defence cooperation is possible between Iran and Pakistan because of massive trust deficit after centrifuge design fiasco and the way Iran ditched us for $. Besides Pakistan why would buy weapons from a source which is sanctioned to teeth and there is no guarantee if the sanctions are imposed again after lifting? Please remember Iran is off the hook from economic sanctions only. Military sanctions are still in place.
 
What about Iranian Helicopters to Pakistan?

Shahed 278

The Shahed 278 is a utility helicopter developed in Iran.

Iran's Shahed Aviation Industries Research Center plans to produce several variants of Shahed, the sources said. The first platform was the Shahed-278(Oh-78), described as a light reconnaissance helicopter and armed with weapons and sensors. Test flights of the Shahed-278(Oh-78) began in 2005.

Sorry mate we don't require 80's tech locally named after adding a new wing , vertical stabilizer or cockpit to american or Russian tech
 
Iran has nothing to offer to Pakistan. They have 80s technology and fake planes.

Best option is to go with Chinese and Russian helicopter since Turkish is expensive.
One more option is to joint build a helicopter with friendly counrty. South Africa Denel Rooivalk is not a bad option if South Africa and Pakistan invest and build a advance version of Rooivalk.

Not a Mature Plateform.......... More over we have to offer nothing in that program.
AH1Z are coming in 2018, hopefully Z10 next blocks will overcome the short comings of current variants..............

Z-10 is listed as the 10 best helicopter in the world but PA weren't satisfied with the current version.
