SUMMARY SW205T

SUMMARY

The SW205T, is a very advanced version of the venerable and tested 205/UH-1H family of medium helicopters. Its capabilities far outreach any previous version of this famous line of excellent helicopters.

By mounting a second engine the helicopter now has more power which allows a much larger operational envelope and greatly expands its capabilities, regardless of operating conditions. The engines operate separately from each other entirely, and each are capable of powering the helicopter individually in any flight regime. This is an important safety of flight consideration.

The operating costs of the SW205T are substantially less than the legacy 205/UH-1H due to the use of components with longer times between overhaul, and with less stress and strain on the engines. The use of advanced technology in the redesign of certain aspects of the helicopter allows simplified solutions for the power train and flight control systems.

By using tested and proven off the shelf components in an innovative way, the SW205T is an inexpensive yet highly effective medium helicopter that has no rival in terms of cost-effectiveness among the current crop of modern medium helicopters.

In performance, the SW205T greatly outperforms the legacy 205/UH-1H, as well as the follow-on 212/412 models. It will out lift any of these helicopters throughout the operational envelope, with a longer range, and is more versatile in its capabilities. It can be outfitted for many different missions depending on the range of accessories and options selected.

A product of innovative and highly competent technical expertise, the SW205T is a helicopter for the 21st Century.
