TWO PRODUCTION Nh90s FIRST FLIGHT the SAME NH90 PT1 FLEW TO ITALY Aix-en-Provence, 29 July 1997. The first NH90 prototype (PT1) crossed the Italian border and arrived today at the AGUSTA plant in Cascina Costa , north of Milan, to start the installation and testing of the second engine: the T700-T6E by Alfa Romeo Avio/General Electric. AGUSTA has the design responsibility for this activity, which is foreseen by the Additional Work and National Customisation contract signed on 6 October 1995 by NAHEMA (NATO Helicopter Management Agency) and NHIndustries (NH90 prime contractor). According to the contract the “Additional work” items, like the second engine, that are developed in the frame of the main D&D contract can be commonly utilised by all the Participating Nations. The NH90 PT1 took-off this afternoon from the Eurocopter plant in Marignane with a joint Eurocopter/ Agusta crew and it landed at Agusta, where it has been warmly welcome, after 2 hrs flight. We recall that the NH90 PT1 (maiden flight 18 Dec. 95) has logged 150 flight hours opening the whole flight envelope and recently performed a daily presentation at the Paris Airshow 97. The second prototype, the PT2 (maiden flight 19 March 97) is presently continuing the Fly-by-wire planned trials. The ground test vehicle (GTV) has logged more than 300 test hours. The overall trials results are very satisfactory for engineers and crews, and consolidate the basis of the NH90 Project. This event is the confirmation of the high technical integration level reached by the NH90 industry cooperation, a result that has been possible by the day-by-day management at all levels and by the top level expertise of all participants of the industrial consortium.

  • Nhindustries NH90 from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    NHIndustries NH90 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The NHIndustries NH90 is a medium-sized, twin-engine, multi-role military helicopter. It was developed in response to NATO requirements for a battlefield helicopter which would also be capable of being operated in naval environments. The NH90 NH90 was developed and is manufactured by NHIndustries, a collaborative company, which is owned by Airbus Helicopters, AgustaWestland and Fokker Aerostructures. The first prototype conducted its maiden flight in December 1995; the type began to enter operational service with some customers in 2007. As of 2013, a total of thirteen nations have placed orders for the NH90. The NH90 has the distinction of being the first production helicopter to feature entirely fly by wire flight controls.[5] There are two main variants, the Tactical Transport Helicopter (TTH) for army use and the navalised NATO Frigate Helicopter (NFH); each customer typically has various alterations and customisations made to their own NH90 fleets, such as different weapons, sensors and cabin arrangements, to meet their own specific requirements. In early service, the NH90 has suffered several teething issues, which has in turn delayed active deployment of the type by some operators.
