Photos of the day: Z-19

Without much fanfare,  The Z-19 light attack chopper is  now servicing two different LH brigades, the 8th and the 2nd.  Yes,  it is still ugly and in need of a chain gun.

As a side note,   Z-19 will be on public display at the 2012 Zhuahi airshow later this month.

Z-19 in LH Color

It has been over a year since the first photo s the Z-19 (Z-9W tandem-seat attack mod) surfaced on the Chinese internet and what follows is a predictable speculation on rather the China Army would adopter another attack chopper for its LH (Army Aviation) fleet. This latest photos of Z-19 in LH color seem to suggest that the LH is indeed adopting a dual-track strategy. Hopefully this will put an end to the speculation.
