WZ-10 Photographs

For a long time the jury was out on whether there were any genuine photographs, or even authoritative artist concepts, of the WZ-10. A number of discrepancies are evident in the concept images that do not purport to be photographs [the first image in this groups is pretending to be a photograph, but not convincingly]. Another image in this group also depicts a tail rotor that is at variance with other depictions. The "future concepts" artwork is derivative from the published "photographs" with stealth features added.

At least two "photographs" of the WZ-10 are obvious fabrications, derived from doctored photographs of the CSH-2 Rooivalk and the Ka-50-2 Erdogan.

One early published "photo" claiming to show one of the possible design of the WZ-10, featured a Z-9/AS 365-style fuselage layout and tail rotor, with a side-by-side, two-seat cockpit, a roof-mounted optical sight, and a nose-mounted FLIR.
