Alias, normalmente os lugares de Portugal são bonitos. Estou até pensando ir próximo ano para a antiga metrópole difundir um pouco a cultura do vinagre!

Portugal's Super Lynx helicopters to be upgraded

Victor Barreira, Istanbul - IHS Jane's Defence Weekly
17 March 2016



Finmeccanica is to upgrade the Portuguese Navy's AgustaWestland Super Lynx Mk95 multirole helicopters, the Portuguese Ministry of National Defence (MND) has decided.

The EUR69 million (USD78.2 million) programme will provide the helicopters with new engines and a new avionics suite. The upgrade will also extend the aircraft's service life, deal with airworthiness obsolescence, and allow it to meet new European flight standards due to come into effect in 2018.

Portugal's Naval Helicopter Squadron (EHM) operates five Super Lynx helicopters purchased in 1990 (three new-built aircraft and two remanufactured ex-Royal navy Lynx HAS.3 helicopters) from Montijo Air Base, where they have been based since 1993. Two of the helicopters were refurbished by Vector Aerospace in Portugal in May 2015, while a third that had been retired was brought back into service.

The helicopters carry out anti-surface warfare, anti-submarine warfare, maritime interdiction, search and rescue, medical evacuation, and general utility roles mainly from Portugal's Vasco da Gama-class and Bartolomeu Dias-class frigates.

They are fitted with the RDR-1500B search and surveillance radar, AN/AQS-18V dipping sonar, a rescue hoist, and can be armed with the Mk46 Mod 5 torpedo and a door-mounted M3M 12.7x99 mm machine gun.
