NH90 Helikopters , German Army ( HEER)2006-2008

So I post a lot of NH90 Helikopter-Piczures.The Tail Number is not of official Number at the german Army. The 98+XX Numbers are from the testing-Unit of the German Military ( WTD )
The official Army Helikopters had the Tail-Numbers : 78+XX
The first two Pictures presented the first NH90 for the German AirForce ( Luftwaffe). Look for the Name at the Tail.
98+93 . This number is only for testing-Helikopter before the Army-Unit the Helikopter get .

Good stuff.
The US should look into getting some more helicopters as well.

 

[Maytime]

Looks good, are there any publications on its performance? I don't see it replacing the Blackhawk any time soon, though.

Trialled them, everyone including me absolutely hated the things. To get out you have to go past the machine gun on either side while flipping up seats as they block your path. Completely unsuitable for Infantry and all our gear.

 

[A Can of Man]

Can't argue with someone who's used it.
So it's a REMF designed helicopter for REMFS maybe.

 

[Wallabies]

Pretty much. It's a lot better just to take out the seats of the blackhawks and sit on the floor, you can fit about 15 blokes in there with packs. Makes debussing faster as well.

Agreed, Air mobile brigade assesed the aircraft the same way.
Looks like our SOF units are going to keep using Super Pumas and a few other older helos instead of this overpriced piece of REMF kit.
