Depends on how long they want to wait. Worst case, they could wait for that indigenous Turkish turboshaft to qualify for the T129 (I think it's suitable for the T129, right?)
With modifications, yes but by the time the TS1400 engine is ready to be used on the T129, 30 Z-10ME's could've already entered service with Pakistan.

As of the latest news, no order has been given to work on a attack helicopter variant of the TS1400 engine.

Z-10ME has all the things PAF needs so if I were them, I wouldn't wait for the T129.

But time will tell.

Correction ....

The picture is of PNS Badr (2nd ship) currently under construction in Karachi (Picture is a few months old).

PNS Khaibar (3rd ship) is currently under construction in Istanbul.
