RAN MULTI ROLE HELICOPTERS TO THE RESCUE DURING NATURAL DISASTERS

摘要

The RAN MRH fleet use basically the same helicopters as the 40 being operated by the Army. The total size of the fleet is 47, with one extra helicopter acquired as a potential source of spares. As Andrew Mathewson, Managing Director, Airbus Australia Pacific explained: "The MRH90 fleet is maintained in a common configuration and support system across Army and Navy. This ensures the fleet is able to be supported by a common training system and the same parts pool, which allows for efficiencies in fleet planning.
