EC725 Super Cougar – serious technical problems in Brazil

Hi all,

The EC725 Super Cougar which are being produced under license in Brazil has experienced some serious problems, namely that the main rotor blades have in two separate occasions chopped off the engine air filters.

I was wondering if any of you know about any similar events that may have occurred with other military operators of the EC725, particularly France.

Cheers,
Rudnei
