I think there cobras are still in good shape. I figure they might try and wait for a heavyweight attack helicopter from China as the Indians now have Apaches.
PA is looking at Turkish T-129s ( may run into US objections,) Newer Cobras Ah-1Z or perhaps Z-10s, as always $ is issue and may end up with cobras AH-1Z by way of FMS funds. Current fleet of Cobras is getting old and due to insurgency fights putting on high number of flight hours.
