OTH
Merlin features a HELRAS active dipping sonar
It features
Sensors:
Radar: Sea Spray Mk 3
Sonar: ASQ-18
Weapons:
Torpedoes: 2 x Mk 46 or Stingray
Missiles: 2 x Sea Skua or 2 x AS-12
Don’t know of the sonobuoys..
That platform.. AB-212 is quite proven though..
Gives quite a good detailed info about the Merlin and it’s sensor/weapon fits..
What about the Sensor fit on these choppers.. What and how many Sonobuoys do they carry??
Don’t look at the choppers only.. look at it’s sub-systems also..
AS-532C is in use by Chile
Look at the PC-21 cockpit 😎
It’s EXCELLENT

Is has already been integrated with the ALH.. and the user trials are going through currently..
This AEW&C is fine..
BUT
what’s interesting in that article was the mention of the AESA .. if this is what they are targetting next.. and IF successfull.. which i am postive off.. will lead to the application of this tech for other ventures as AESA for LCA/MCA etc.. AESA for a 3D Radar for Naval applications etc..
IF this project gets through successfully, and as mentioned the platform will be the Embraer, then it would be a good tactical strike against the PAF plans to look into the Erieye which comes on Embraer for the time being..
Hope the government clears the project..:cool:


I think it is for the Communists.. :rolleyes:
Initially the project was to complete the 140 till 2017 but now IAF and Government has formally requested the HAL to complete the order of these 140 by 2014
I agree h177 that out here the negotiations take a looong time… but not in all the cases… exceptions are there.. I don’t think that this decision will get delayed.. but then my own wordings .. exceptions are always there.. I am positive though.. 🙂
I dunno what Indian1973 said.. but I think that the figures was for 40 coz of this news.. which came in Feb..

🙁 Now that’s very strange coz I could see the website from my browser.. Even now I can see it..
What’s gone wrong out there :rolleyes:
