Either the Chinese military is learning something from Maskirovka, the fictitious Intelligence service of the similarly fictitious House Liao / Capellan Confederation in the Battletech universe, or the WZ-10 has several prototypes or several different versions.

Here are more pics of gunships, all allegedly, the WZ-10 [武直－10].

Note, I am NOT calling them outright fakes. I suspect there is a WZ-10 in the making. But I have gone through several sites in Google and Baidu using the keyword ‘WZ-10’ to search and I am getting so many photos of gunships looking different from one another that I must question which of these pictures are real.

Below: The one on the left looks very convincing. The one on the right, well, looks like an artist impression using the copy function of Adobe Photoshop. Just look at the blade positions. Too unison. And look at the tail rotor… erm.. what tail rotor?
