Unbeatable in heat
Forty-five degrees and no trouble. The European equivalent lost performance at that temperature.

Product description
A South African attack helicopter. Few were built, production has stopped, and the remaining airframes are kept flying through maintenance. Designed for hot and dusty conditions, it outperforms its competitors in that climate. Spare parts are hard to find, and with so few operators there is barely a used market.

No spare parts
Production has stopped. We waited six months for one part and in the end had it machined locally.

Well thought out design
Maintenance points are easy to reach. Someone who works in the field was clearly involved in the design.
