DID YOU KNOW? The WEATHER RADAR on the EC145 C2 helicopter is a system that uses radio waves to detect and map weather conditions around the aircraft. It provides crucial information, such as the location of storms, precipitation intensity, and other weather patterns, enabling pilots to make informed decisions during flight. The radar on the EC145 C2 plays a vital role in operational safety, helping to avoid adverse weather areas and improving the effectiveness of missions under various atmospheric conditions. #helicopters #hubschrauber #weatherradar Helibras Airbus Helicopters Airbus Defence and Space

300 ORDERS FOR THE #C295 AIRCRAFT. Following the success of the #C212 and #CN235, CONSTRUCCIONES AERONAUTICAS SA (#CASA), the origin of Airbus in #Spain, decided to launch the #C295, the natural evolution of the CN235, a slightly #larger aircraft with 50% more #capabilities. The programme was officially launched in 1996, #construction of the first #prototype began in early 1997 and the first #flight took place in November 1997 in #Getafe, Madrid. In November 1999, Spanish National Institute for Aerospace Technology (INTA) militarily #certified the #aircraft for the first time. The 35th Wing from the Spanish Air and Space Force operates its fleet of #C295s in transport configuration from the #Getafe Air Base. For example, these #C295s form part of the Ivory Detachment in #Senegal to support #Mali in the fight against jihadism.  The #C295 first #flight took place in 1997, with the #Spanish #AirForce as its first #customer. Today, #India is its largest #customer with 56 #aircraft, the first of which was delivered in September 2023.

🚁 Important milestone for the European Clean Sky 2 funding initiative: the Airbus Helicopters' Racer prototype has achieved its inaugural flight at speeds of 400 km/h. This project is a collaborative effort involving 40 partners from 13 European countries. This success highlights the importance of the European Union's support for research and innovation, enabling significant advances in aeronautical technologies while promoting more sustainable aviation. The Racer, which consumes 20% less fuel compared to current models, exemplifies Europe's commitment to eco-friendly innovation. In addition to missions where every minute counts - emergency medical services, search and rescue, commercial or private aviation - the Racer could also be adapted for military use.
