Newest EC135 T2e/P2e

With its advanced design and state-of-the-art technology, the EC135 is the aviation market trendsetter

The EC135 is a powerful, lightweight, twin-engine multi-mission helicopter that showcases top-notch technology offering the highest level of reliability of the market. The EC135’s high endurance and extended range enables this helicopter to perform a full range of mission requirements, while carrying more payload over longer distance than any aircraft in its class. Making up more than 40 per cent of the light twin-engine deliveries on the last five years, the EC135 has been recognised as the preferred helicopter to carry four to six passengers.

Incorporating a modern cockpit and avionics – as well as Eurocopter’s Fenestron tail rotor and bearingless main rotor – the EC135 is recognised for its lowest noise and vibration level of its class providing an unrivalled level of comfort. EC135 T2e/ T2e Unveiled in March 2011, the evolved version of the EC135 – the EC135 P2e/T2e – will arrive in India by the end of 2012. The new EC135 P2e/T2e will offer better performances, new inlet barrier filer, improved ventilation and air conditioning for more comfort. In addition, an evaluation was conducted by the independent organisation Conklin and De Decker, and the results of its analysis of helicopter direct operating cost (DOC) that was published in May 2012 showed that the EC135 P2e/T2e is the world’s cheapest light twin helicopter to operate. Last but not least, Eurocopter also opened a new EC135 Full Flight Simulator certified level B, which will enable operators to perform and reduce cost of initial and recurrent type training as well as specific training on emergency procedures, instrument flight rules, offshore, night flights, night vision goggles and Cat A operations.
