The A109POWERs reliability is assured by a

fully separated fuel system supplying its twin

engines, plus a dual hydraulic boost system,

dual electr ical system and redundant

lubrication and cooling systems for the main

transmission and engines. And an air oil

absorber for each wheeled type landing gear

leg increases the crashworthiness and ship-

deck operational capabilities. A wide range of

mission equipment and armament

make the A109POWER a real

multirole light helicopter able to

satisfy the vast majority of requirements such as: Area patrolling, Search and

Rescue, EMS, Passengers transport. Many of these missions are often performed

in difficult and unfavourable environmental conditions including night flight under

adverse weather. This demands that the helicopter crew are provided with

assisted flight controls (Autopilot) and autonomous and reliable COM/NAV aids

providing real low-altitude and poor visibility flying capabilities. The A109 POWER

responds to this demand with a complete advanced avionics suite. Participation in

operations in cooperation with naval units is enhanced by the installation of a

360 or 120 search radar and maritime band radios extending the engagement

horizon of the vessels to track and target suspect ships with information relayed

by voice or datalink.

A mul titude of A GUSTA he licop ters have operat ed i n the harsh m aritim e

environment over extended periods of time, starting with the venerable AB204,

our experience continued on the AB212 and SH-3D, and today is provided on the

EH101 and NH-90 helicopters for the Italian, British, French, German, Dutch and

other Navies. All this aptly demonstrating the success of Agustas time-proven

use of established materials, protective finishes and processes. And this

experience affords the A109POWER unrestricted operations in the "salt laden, over

the sea environment without corrosion or other long-term degradation of

structural or system properties.

Today, the A109 operates in maritime missions for a multitude of

prestigious organizations including, among others, the United States

Coast Guard. The A109POWER is actually the best solution for an

embarked l ight twin helicopter, due to its multi-miss ion

effectiveness, the extensive corrosion protection and high sea state

operation capability . The ability to operate from small ships in high

sea state enables the A109POWER to perform its mission when

many other helicopters would be confined in the ships hangar.

The A109POWERs reinforced wheeled landing gear is the perfect

solution for easy ground/deck mobility and ship interface, and

More than ever before, a nations effective surveillance

and patrol of its coasts and borders are paramount for

its protection of national interests and security. Today, a

nations ability to provide that protection against terrorist

intrusion, smuggling, illegal immigration, and illegal

fishing, among others, requires modern assets, means

and technologies to help ensure that protection is

provided successfully and effectively.

With a long tradition of excellent performance in a wide

range of roles and operating environments, the Agusta

A109POWER is that asset.

With its wide array of sophi stica ted sensors , t he

A109POWER light twin turbine engine helicopter offers the

capacity to control and monitor wide areas of concern.

Joined with the A109POWERs performance, ballistic

tolerances, safety features and crashworthiness

characteristics, the combination is unbeatable.

Today, the potential scenarios a nation faces are less

clear than ever. But whether the mission calls for armed

patrol, close-in ground support, special team transport,

medical evacuation, surveillance and control, or VIP

transport, the A109POWERs speed, payload and rapid

role-change capabilities respond to any demands. And in

the end, make the scenario much, much clearer for

everyone except the enemy.

The A109POWER is a 3 ton class helicopter combining

safety attributes such as excellent single engine

performance with technically superior characteristics

such as a cruise speed of 154 knots (285 km/h).
