Z-20 (all variants) thread
- Thread starter delft
- Start date
Could someone chalk down the table of all at current flying Z-20 variants along with their respective roles/functions? The Wikipedia page appears to be outdated.
Are naval Z-20s still not integrated on PLAN DDGs and FFGs yet? They only appear to be active on 075 LHDs, but I'm still yet to see them stored and operated on a 055/052D/054A/B. But I could be wrong if anyone else knows.
Earlier batches of 052D/054A can't operate Z-20s anyway. Only the extended-deck 052DL/054AG ones.
Z-20J on the deck.
Tried to accumulate the following table with available information, any suggestions/amendments are welcome...
# | Type | Role / Variant |
1 | Z–20 | Base Utility/Transport - PLA |
2 | Z-20T | Armed Assault – PLA |
3 | Z–20S | SAR – PLA |
4 | Z-20K | Airborne corps - PLAAF |
5 | Z-20KA | Air Assault – PLAAF |
6 | Z-20KS | SAR – PLAAF |
7 | Z-20J | Naval Utility/Transport - PLAN |
8 | Z-20F | ASW – PLAN |
9 | Z-20PAP | People's Armed Police (PAP) |
