Turkey needs to find a new engine for Pakistan’s T129 order

Pakistan’s bid to buy the T129 attack helicopter from Turkey has run into a roadblock after the U.S. government refused to grant an export license for the rotorcraft’s LHTEC T800 turboshaft engine.

Turkey will now have to source for another engine and conduct flight trials before it can deliver 30 T129s to Pakistan.

Hurriyet says Turkey could source the engine either from France or Poland
