Defence IQ presents the 9th Annual International Military Helicopter

Have helicopters ever been more crucial to the success of a campaign since the end of the Vietnam War?

Have the hot, high and dusty operating conditions of Afghanistan placed a greater strain on capabilities and maintenance operations than almost any other theatre?

Has the exponential increasein public scrutiny of helicopter availability placed even further pressures on Commanders and the supply chains that support rotary wing/vertical lift movements?

Away from overland operations, the growing threats (such as piracy) in the maritime environment mean that helicopter surveillance capabilities will be in immense demand. Two Akula class submarines recently surfaced off the east coast of the United States – proving that sub-hunting is more important now than almost any time since the end of the Cold War.

Platform self protection is an ongoing concern for every crew, maximising engine power and lift is vital as payloads increase is top of many wish-lists and streamlining repair and maintenance operations requires constant improvement.
