AW119M
Powerful and flexible
Mission flexibility is crucial to military helicopter operations. The AW119M provides exceptional multi-mission performance, allied with the ability to operate in challenging environments, day and night. The light single-engine AW119M is the military version of the AW119Kx and is the only helicopter in its class with the inherent safety provided by redundant main systems.
Mission ready
The AW119M features excellent flight handling qualities and controllability combined with high power margins to excel in demanding ‘hot and high’ conditions. With long endurance and a cruise speed of more than 130kt, the helicopter maximises time on task. A wide range of mission and role equipment can be installed on the AW119M, enhancing operational effectiveness.
Highly flexible cabin
The AW119M’s spacious reconfigurable cabin offers more room than any other single-engine helicopter and can be reconfigured rapidly to satisfy a large variety of roles. Large sliding doors on both sides of the helicopter enable fast access for troops, equipment or a stretcher. Up to two door-mounted machine guns can be installed on the aircraft.
Mission versatility
High mission versatility and a rugged airframe make the AW119M a cost-effective helicopter for a wide range of military applications. It is optimised for roles including troop transport, training, external lift, casualty evacuation, Search and Rescue (SAR), Command and Control (C2), and armed escort. The AW119M is also highly capable in the maritime environment.
Advanced avionics
The state-of-the-art digital avionics suite enables both VFR and IFR operations, showing critical flight information on two large multi-function displays, enhancing situational awareness and reducing pilot workload. A Synthetic Vision System (SVS), Highway In The Sky (HITS) depiction, moving map and embedded Helicopter Terrain Avoidance Warning System (HTAWS) all enhance safety.
