Posting Old Photos During the COVID-19 Pandemic 3: Wildcat Helicopter
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I’ve been trying to stay at home as much as possible. To kill the boredom, I’ve been spending my time restoring old photos.
Here are a few shots of the AgustaWestland AW159 Wildcat from the 2018 Air Tattoo.
It is quite surprising that there is very little Chinese information about this aircraft online..
The AgustaWestland AW159 Wildcat (previously called the Future Lynx and Lynx Wildcat) is an improved version of the Westland Super Lynx military helicopter designed to serve in the battlefield utility, search and rescue and anti-surface warfare roles. In British service, common variants are being operated by both the Royal Navy and British Army, having replaced their Lynx Mk.7/8/9 predecessors. The AW159 has also been offered to several export customers, and has been ordered by the Republic of Korea Navy and the Philippine Navy.
