My appologies if this has been posted before. Seems that Pakistani charter airline Hybrid Aviation has ordered 10 upcoming AVIC MA 700 turboprops. If true, then it might be the first Pakistani order for a Chinese civil aircraft.

Maybe they signed a letter of intent (LoI) not a firm order.

Currently Lahore-based Hybrid Aviation has a fleet of light aircraft.

Pakistan to Buy MA700 Turboprop Aircraft from China

Post by reverse-thrust »

Xian Aircraft Industrial Corporation under the parent company Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC) is working on a shoulder-winged turboprop-powered airliner known as Modern Ark 700 (MA700) with the ability to operate in complex flight environments.

Pakistan, among other countries, like Bahrain, Cambodia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, etc. is already lined up to acquire the $25 million MA700 which will available in 2022.

The aircraft’s capabilities make it ideal for PIA’s domestic flights. Pakistan Army’s aviation wing and Pakistan Air Force can also make use of an aircraft that’s built to operate in difficult situations.

Best suited for short runway conditions, high-altitudes, and high temperatures, MA700 is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW150C turboprop engines generating 5100 horsepower each.
