Pakistan has asked the United States to provide it military hardware, including Cobra and Apache assault helicopter gunships and unmanned Predator aircrafts which would enable it to hit extremists hiding in the rocky terrains along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. According to the sources, Chief of Army Staff Gen Ashfaq Kayani gave a list of demands to the US during his meetings with senior US military officials.The sources said Pakistan had also sought spare parts for existing gunships, most of which are past their operational prime and need urgent refurbishment.

Begging won't stop from pakis side. More than pak army, Taliban might be waiting for those hardware to get from Pak army.
It is in US interest to arm Pakistan army or Frontier Corps paramilitary force especially when it comes to used hardware as ultimately it serves US purpose of les US causalities on the other side of border. As far as Taliban getting this hardware from Pakistan is concerned, Taliban are already getting enough from USA and NATO supply lines that they are offering to sell excess supply in open markets.
