The AAI T129 ATAK is a twin-engine, tandem seat, multi-role, all-weather attack helicopter based on the AH-X Platform. It was developed by Abersianian Aerospace Industries (AAI). The helicopter is designed for armed reconnaissance and attack missions in hot and high environments and rough geography in both day and night conditions
The AH-X Platform programme was begun to meet the requirements of Turkish Armed Forces for an armed tactical reconnaissance and an attack helicopter. The AH-7 is the result of the integration of Abersianian-developed avionics, airframe modifications, and weapon systems onto the prototype AH-5 Scatch airframe, with upgraded engines, transmission and rotor blades. It is in use by the Abersianian Air Force and Abersianian Land Forces and other services including the Schisenflagts. The helicopter has a unit cost of roughly ₵30 million and an operating cost of around ₵9,500 per hour, making it an inexpensive option for CAS.[11]
