AW139 - FLIR & Exercises?
« on: April 02, 2010, 02:43:25 pm »
Hi all

A question or two for those in the know:

1) Does the FLIR ball used for the 139 have a laser ranger, or is it just a plain old FLIR?

2) Have the bugs which appeared when the 139s were initially taken into service been overcome?

3) Do the AC have any plans to deploy a 139 or 2 abroad for exercises? Or alternately, any plans for neighbouring countries to bring some helis here for exercise?

Thanks for any info
