Light twin engine

AS355 NP/EC135/EC145

Specially designed for urban operations

Two key aspects of these aircraft designate them specifically for urban missions: their vast, single-volume cabin, the only one of its kind, and the extreme reliability of their twin-engine power plant.

Economical Operation

Design simplicity, easy access to main components, the use of composite materials, and the technological reliability of Eurocopter aircraft guarantee you very low operating costs. The TBOs (Time Between Overhaul) are the highest in the industry, allowing our helicopters an exceptional availability rate.

Safety (Equipment may vary from case to case)

At Eurocopter, safety is a primary concern whether in flight or during ground operations. Notable safety features include: The VEMD: (Vehicle and Engine Multifunction Display), The FADEC System (Full Authority Digital Engine Control), The shrouded Fenestron® tail rotor, a high clearance of the rotors, Energy Absorbing seats…

The Necessary Equipmentand Systems Suite

All of our aircraft can be outfitted with all the necessary equipment for your surveillance and law enforcement operations: searchlights, FLIR, video down-link, data transmission (data down link), hoisting systems, rope down systems, loudspeakers, etc.

Large Cabin Volume

Cabin volume and accessibility are essential factors in facilitating transportation of heavily equipped specialized teams. Unlike the competition, Eurocopter offers you a single-volume, level-floor cabin which is much more spacious and eliminates wasted space. Wide openings and the capability to load both from the sides and at the rear (Not on AS355 NP) facilitate and accelerate this phase of operations, shortening deployment times. The open space allows better communication between each crew member (in the cockpit and cabin).
