Aircraft
- In 2015 the Pakistan Army ordered 12 Bell AH-Z Viper attack helicopters, with an option of 3 more to replace its aging AH-1F Cobras. Following cancellation of $300 million military aid to Pakistan by the US government, the helicopters were put into storage at Davis-Monthan AFB, Arizona.[152][153]
- 3 CAIC Z-10 attack helicopters of China were delivered for trial use so that orders could be made in the future.[154]
- 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.[155][156][157]
