The Z-9 is a Chinese military utility helicopter. It is a copy of the French Eurocopter Dauphin, and is manufactured by Harbin Aircraft Manufacturing Corporation.

[edit] Variants

A crude attack helicopter variant is fielded by the PLA as the WZ-9, with pylons fitted for anti-tank missiles. These helicopters lack the manuverability and survivability of a proper attack helicopter, and merely provide a stopgap during the development of the WZ-10.
