The first EC145, a four-ton-helicopter capable of supporting various mission requirements ranging from Law Enforcement to Corporate VIP, reached India via Delhi International Airport.
The helicopter is planned to be operated throughout India from Delhi. Before shipment, it had been handed over to Captain Daman Seigell, Chief pilot of JIndal Steel and Power Ltd. at presence of Rainer Farid, regional Eurocopter Sales Director for India, in Eurocopter's EC145 production site in Donauwoerth, Germany.
JIndal selected the EC145 not only because of its modern technology, safety, comfort and versatility, but also because of its high cruising speed. At maximum weight the fast cruise speed of the helicopter is 246 km per hour, the maximum range at this weight being 680 kilometres.
