It's lift-off time - the first of 62 H145Ms ordered by the German Armed Forces recently completed its maiden flight at our Donauwörth site in Germany! At the same time, the first German pilots began training on their brand new helicopters. The H145M is a multi-role military helicopter that provides a broad range of mission capabilities.  Within minutes, the helicopter can be reconfigured from a light attack role with axial ballistic and guided weapons and a state-of-the-art self-protection system into a special operations version including fast rappelling equipment. The comprehensive mission packages include hoisting and external cargo capabilities.  The H145M is used by armed and law enforcement forces around the world for the most demanding missions. The Bundeswehr already operates 16 H145M LUH SOF and 8 H145 LUH SAR helicopters.  #AirbusHelicopters #Bundeswehr #H145M #Airbus #MakingMissionsPossible
