BAE 146
BAE 146 is a quiet but rugged
aircraft, with a high level of
built-in redundancy. It can
carry many of its own spares,
allowing it to operate for long
periods away from base, with
little or no external support.
The aircraft has excellent
short-field performance and its
ability to operate from high or
unprepared airfields in missile
threat areas means that the
aircraft is extremely versatile.
Britten-Norman
(BN2T-4S)
RMk2 Defender
The Defender is a versatile
military asset. With an airframe
designed to be easily modifiable,
the Defender can be used for
a variety of roles including:
counter terrorism, border patrol,
maritime surveillance, policing
and urban surveillance, search
and rescue, air ambulance and
transportation. The Defender
can also act as a targeting
system for long range weapons
and land based vehicles. A
sliding door, ten parachutists
and a jump master can easily
be accommodated if the aircraft
is required for training military
personnel, and has unbeatable
through life costs.

 The design allows for
exceptional low-speed handling
and manoeuvring capabilities,
permitting the aircraft to almost
hang in the air. Its 70-90 knot
speed enables continuous
tight turns during low level
observation, inspection and
photography. It is fitted with
durable and fuel efficient Rolls
Royce Allison engines, 250-B17F
flat-rated at 400hp with 200amp
generators. Its basic transit

non-combatant evacuations,
and humanitarian and disaster
relief operations. The aircraft
is capable of carrying 16
passengers, 12 fully equipped
troops or up to 2 tonnes of
freight, the latter moved as
internal cargo or underslung,
or a mix of the two. It can
also be fitted with up to six

it only has one engine, its
lightweight chassis gives
advantages in its small agile
nature and its unparalleled
visibility from the cockpit.
Commonly used for light
transport, scouting and light
attack duties. It is powered by
a Turbomeca Astazou turbine
engine and it was the first
helicopter to feature a fenestron
tail instead of a conventional tail
rotor. Since being introduced to
service in 1973, the Gazelle has
been procured and operated
by the British Army, the French
Army and several export
customers.
