Chinese has been developing an special attack helicopter for a long time.
They has developed WZ-9 WZ-11 already. Now we can see a new attack helicopter which serial number is between 9 and 11, we called WZ-10.
The heli. looks like mixed Mangusta and Rooivalk.

Here's a link to the specs.

WZ-10 Attack Helicopter
The PLA Army Aviation lacks an attack helicopter such as the AH-64 Apache or Mi-28 Havoc. The limited attack helicopter force consists of 30-40 WZ-9s and 8 SA-342L Gazelles, along with 60 Mi-17 Hips with unguided rocket launchers.

The primary mission for the treetop hugging WZ-10 is battlefield interdiction, eliminating the enemy ground fixed and mobile forces, and concurrently certain air combat ability.

Sounds good especially with two European MTR 390 turboshafts.
