The military helicopter segment has been impacted significantly by continued defense budgetary pressures across most traditional markets, and a recent slide in global crude oil prices has impacted the demand for new civil helicopters as well as the level of activity for existing fleets engaged in the offshore oil & gas exploration sector. This situation has impacted industry OEMs significantly, many of which had been working towards strengthening the civil helicopter segment to partially offset the impact of budgetary cuts on the military segment. However, the medium- to long-term view of the market is promising given the presence of strong fundamentals and persistent, sustainable growth drivers. The market for military helicopters in particular is set to cross a technological threshold in the form of next-generation compound helicopters and tilt rotorcraft. Emergence of these technologies, expected to be set into motion and completed within the next decade, are likely to result in a significant expansion of the operational spectrum, force capabilities and performance. Aircraft arising from these new programmes may well see their conventional roles redefined, and thereby enhance the overall effectiveness of modern military operations. There are a number of strong and stable growth drivers for military helicopters globally, despite the continued challenges of funding and approval. A total of 20,790 military helicopters are currently in service in 153 countries, with a further 3,402 on order in over 60 countries. The most widely operated type is the S-70/UH-60, of which some 3,600 are in service, followed by the Mi-8/17, of which 2,400 are in operation. Between them, these two types represent 29% of the world military helicopter fleet. 2 MARKET OVERVIEW Geographical Breakdown of World Military Helicopter Fleet 7000 6265 5393 6000 4940 FLEET 5000 NUMBERS 4000 3000 2209 NUMBERS ON 2000 1296 1213 687 941 712 ORDER 1000 38 320 178 0 North America operates the largest part of the world military helicopter fleet (30.2%), followed by Asia-Pacific (25.9%) and Europe (23.8%). However, in terms of orders, Asia-Pacific has the highest proportion (35.7%), with India alone accounting for 42% of the military helicopters on order in that region. Africa is also anticipating a huge increase to its regional fleet number. In Europe, Russia presently accounts for 43% of military helicopter orders. 3 KEY REQUIREMENTS LATEST INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENTS LATEST INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENTS Selected acquisition and modernisation from around the world… EUROPE DENMARK • Denmark has taken delivery of its first 3 Sikorsky MH-60R Seahawks. • They will be flown by the Royal Danish Air Force’s Eskadrille 723.

  • Bell 206B OH-58A Kiowa & Jetranger
    SOUTH AUSTRALIAN AVIATION MUSEUM SIGNIFICANT AVIATOR, AIRCRAFT & AVIATION EVENTS PROFILES _____________________________________________________________________ Bell 206B OH-58A Kiowa & JetRanger Toward the latter half of 1960 it was broadcast to numbers of aircraft manufacturers that the United States Army was in the market for a light observation helicopter (LOH). Through a proposal made initially by the US Navy on October 14th 1960, a competition was created that requested submission of designs conforming to the US Army's specifications. These called for a helicopter that could fulfil the following duties: casualty evacuation, close support, observation, photo-reconnaissance and transport. No single previous helicopter design had been able to meet all these operational requirements. The Army also made it clear that they were looking for a helicopter that had seating for four, a payload of 181kg and a cruising speed in the vicinity of 193km/h. Out of the 12 aircraft manufacturing companies interested in this project, two were contracted to build five prototypes and subject them to the US Army test and evaluation procedures. The two companies that submitted the most favourable designs were Bell, and Fairchild Hiller with Hughes Tool Co. From the test results the Hughes OH-6A (Cayuse) prototype was selected for production in May 1965. US Army Hughes OH-6A (Cayuse) prototype (Public Domain) Bell did not take this loss of contract easily, and almost immediately began to redesign its aircraft. Bell's initial design was listed as D-250 but later the prototype was designated as YOH-4. Bell was also made aware that to promote its modified product two areas would need to be addressed.

  • Integrated Helicopter Survivability
    Cranfield University Nicholas G. Law Integrated Helicopter Survivability Aeromechanical Systems Group Cranfield Defence and Security PhD DSTL/PUB36228 Cranfield University Cranfield Defence and Security Aeromechanical Systems Group PhD 2011 Nicholas G. Law Integrated Helicopter Survivability Supervisor: Prof. Kevin Knowles May 2011 © Crown copyright 2011. Published with the permission of the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory on behalf of the Controller of HMSO. DISCLAIMER Any views expressed are those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Dstl, MOD or any other UK government department. ABSTRACT A high level of survivability is important to protect military personnel and equipment and is central to UK defence policy. Integrated Survivability is the systems engineering methodology to achieve optimum survivability at an affordable cost, enabling a mission to be completed successfully in the face of a hostile environment. “Integrated Helicopter Survivability” is an emerging discipline that is applying this systems engineering approach within the helicopter domain. Philosophically the overall survivability objective is ‘zero attrition’, even though this is unobtainable in practice. The research question was: “How can helicopter survivability be assessed in an integrated way so that the best possible level of survivability can be achieved within the constraints and how will the associated methods support the acquisition process?” The research found that principles from safety management could be applied to the survivability problem, in particular reducing survivability risk to as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP). A survivability assessment process was developed to support this approach and was linked into the military helicopter life cycle. This process positioned the survivability assessment methods and associated input data derivation activities.
