There are other parameters in a helicopters design like disc loading that affects performance. Every major difference in design actually effects its performance. What matters for altitude performance is how high it can hover out of ground effect, HOGE. A helicopter can usually fly up to 7000...
It is all about power to weight ratio and that ratio changes by altitude. Engines have different power ratings for sea level and high altitude. Turbine engines do not care much about altitude as they can provide plenty of air for good combustion already and large helicopters are always powered...
It boils down to power to weight ratio. If the T629 P/W is less than the T129 P/W then it is less hot and high capable. It is up to how much less it will be. It can still be within acceptable parameters for Pakistan's intended geography. Mind you, when there is already the T129 for hot and high...
I doubt it. Pakistan wants T129 for its hot and high capabilities and T129 has those capabilities because it has a high power to weigh ratio. T129 is 5 tons and T629 is 6 tons using the same engine therefore T639 will not be a helicopter made for the high mountains. T629 is a better helicopter...
Atak2 tonnage is rated as 10-12 tons but they didn't want to go double digit with the naming.
T-629 being a handsome helicopter has poky nose with that long cannon. Is it a 20 cal or 30 I wonder.
I wish the TS1400 catches up quickly.
There must be many tools in the surgeon's tool-set to address varying operating conditions.
There are aspects of various platforms that are superior to one another. Speed, payload an stealth are some of them. And you use those varying capabilities in accordance with the situations. Hürkuş has...

Turkish scientists develop 10 second Corona test with 99% accuracy and no nose swab required.
The device will be in use in 2 months.
Hürkuş with its top speed of 574km can react rather quickly to threats and can also be considered for unmanned operations. It is the next asset up from the Akıncı UAV for speed. So how does it really compare to Akıncı for all their capabilities?
Turkey is trying to make up for the many lost years that it suffered due to poor leadership.
We are trying to catch up to our true potential which is over 90% self sufficiency.
We are at 70% now but we have come to this point from 20% self sufficiency of 18 years ago.
It will take another decade...
