Naval Force Multiplier

The Multi-Role AW159 delivers unparalleled tactical capability through advanced avionics and mission systems in a compact and robust aircraft. As an evolution of the highly successful Lynx helicopter, the AW159 provides new technology and capability to build on operational experienced across both Maritime and Land Domains. 

Extending Tactical Reach

The AW609 is a revolution in point-to-point aerial transportation, combining the speed, range, and comfort of a fixed-wing airplane with the convenience and flexibility of a helicopter. The AW609 TiltRotor is ideally suited to a wide range of missions including VIP and Executive Transport, Parapublic, Medical and Rescue Services and Energy Services, delivering an unprecedented level of performance.

Flying at almost twice the speed of a conventional helicopter, the AW609 features a comfortable pressurised cabin designed for cruising efficiently at 25,000 ft. Digital VFR/IFR avionics feature triple-redundant fly‑by‑wire controls to reduce pilot workload and maximise situational awareness. 

The AW609 is designed for flight into known icing conditions and meets the highest FAA requirements for both fixed-wing airplanes and helicopters including single-engine operation and autorotation. 

By integrating technologies for surveillance and protection of best of breed technological partners  (eg. AXIS, BOSCH, HANWHA, BOS ITALY, …), information management, automation, mobility and communications, our solutions provide agencies with the operations management support required to prevent, detect, respond to and recover situations in normal and emergency conditions.

The participants in the Eurofighter programme, managed by the consortium Eurofighter GmbH, are Leonardo, BAE Systems and Airbus Defence & Space. The procurement requirements of the air forces of the four partner nations – Italy, the United Kingdom, Germany and Spain – are managed by the NATO Eurofighter & Tornado Management Agency (NETMA).

The M-346FA (Fighter Attack) is a ‘light combat’ version of the M-346 advanced trainer with multi-role capabilities including close air support missions, even in urban areas, battlespace air interdiction for national defence and tactical reconnaissance.
