The Harbin Z-19E is the export version of the Z-19. A mock-up of the helicopter was shown at the Zhuhai Airshow in 2016, and the first prototype took to the air in 2017. Production of this version uses a wider range of composite materials, which increases its quietness and flight safety, as well as reducing the aircraft's weight. In addition, the helicopter received new engines. It was expected that Pakistan would be one of the customers; however, at present, there is no information about the further development of the project.

Introduced in Update "Danger Zone", the Z-19E brings a lot to the table. The flight performance is great and it can perform aerobatic manoeuvres that many contemporaries could only dream of. The Z-19E's main anti-tank weapons are laser-guided BA-9 ATGMs that function as lightweight equivalents of the AGM-114B Hellfire with shorter range and less penetration, assisted by excellent optics and high quality thermal sights. Countermeasures and a missile approach warning system make the Z-19E a slippery opponent for enemy air defenses. But a standout in its arsenal is the TY-90 air-to-air missile, designed specifically for helicopter use. With high agility, a 6 km all-aspect lock range, and flare resistance, the TY-90 is the last word in helicopter anti-air capabilities and can easily swat other helicopters and even manoeuvring fighter jets from the airspace. Carrying up to eight TY-90s, the Z-19E can uniquely function as an air superiority helicopter!
