Airbus Helicopters launches HForce GWS

摘要

Airbus Helicopters has launched a new modular weapons system that offers operators the ability to quickly and easily transform their civilian platforms into armed military ones by means of a single common mission computer. The HForce Generic Weapon System (GWS) was briefed to reporters ahead of its official launch at the HAI HELI-EXPO event in February/March in Louisville, Kentucky. "The HForce GWS can be added to all of our successful civilian helicopters, enabling operators to start [building up their military capabilities] from something that already exists," Philippe Kohn, operating marketing manager, said, adding: "It is a Swiss Army Knife to cover all of the operational spectrum."
