The Republic of Ireland has acquired four Airbus Helicopters H145M light-medium rotorcraft for EUR91.7 million (USD95.4 million).

The Airbus H145Ms represent a vast modernisation and expansion of light-utility helicopter capability for the Air Corps over the present ageing EC-135s, which have reached the end of their useful service life.

The contract for the new helicopters has also been awarded to Airbus Helicopters UK Ltd. The value of the contract is €91.7 million ex. VAT and it is anticipated that delivery will begin in Q1 2027.

Hibrid meghajtású H145 demonstrátor:

"Under plans disclosed last year, the airframer intends to replace the PioneerLab’s stock Safran Helicopter Engines Arriel 2E turboshafts, each rated at 667shp (894kW), with a single Pratt & Whitney Canada 1,000shp-class PW210S engine and two Collins Aerospace 250kW electric motors."

The easier-to-fly Lakotas are also turning out to be harder to maintain.

Airbus, the Lakota’s manufacturer, is headquartered in France. Calling in a company maintenance engineer when a fleet-wide issue needs to be addressed is sometimes up against the tyranny of distance, Gill said.

But Airbus says its lead Lakota program managers based in the U.S. work diligently via phone with the Fort Novosel team “every day to help work through any maintenance issues that arise,” according to an Airbus official. Airbus Helicopters North America is based in Grand Prairie, Texas, and has offices across the U.S. to include Alabama. Lakota maintenance technicians are located at Fort Novosel along with a senior Airbus program manager. The factory where all Army Lakota are made is in Columbus, Mississippi.

A twin-engine helicopter also requires twice the components.

“You don’t need to be a helicopter pilot or mechanic to understand that there are more things to maintain,” Gill said. “Sometimes that means more things can break.”

The Lakota has cost the Army roughly $3,000 per flight hour, which is nearly the same as the Army’s UH-60 Black Hawk, Gill said. Some of the training aircraft that the Army is taking a look at now could potentially cost between $500 and $1,300 an hour.

Német fegyveres erők helikoptere zuhant a folyóba

Hubschrauber-Absturz bei Grimma: Bundeswehr sucht Pilot und Insassen

Ein Hubschrauber der Bundeswehr ist bei Grimma in die Mulde gestürzt. Der Pilot und mögliche Insassen werden noch vermisst.

accd375f260821194b1b5bc427ab6083,37836434



A helikopter, amelyről úgy vélik, hogy egy hamburgi vállalaté volt, de a német fegyveres erők kiképzőrepülésre használták, közvetlenül a Grimma közelében (Lipcsétől 30 kilométerre délkeletre) található kis folyóba zuhant. Az evezősök 11:30 körül fedezték fel a roncsokat. A törzs közelében egy farokrotor is a vízben lebegett.

„Igen, egy légierős kiképző repülőgép volt” – mondta a BILD-nek a baleset helyszínén lévő légierő sajtóirodájának szóvivője a megkeresésünkre. Lehetséges, hogy a pilótával még két ember repült. A szóvivő ezt sem megerősíteni, sem cáfolni nem tudta a BILD-nek.

A szövetségi védelmi minisztérium szerint a helikopter a Bundeswehr megbízásából közlekedett, de nem része a flottájának. Bérelt volt.

Susanne Lübcke, a rendőrség szóvivője a BILD-nek elmondta: „Még mindig keressük a legénységet.”
