    Le projet d'un hélicoptère de nouvelle génération (NGRC) avance

    A l'occasion d'une réunion des ministres de la Défense à Bruxelles, six pays de l'Otan ont signé un mémorandum d'entente pour travailler conjointement sur les concepts d'un hélicoptère de prochaine génération, destiné entre autres à remplacer des machines telles que l'AW-101. La France, l'Allemagne, la Grèce, l'Italie, les Pays-Bas et le Royaume-Uni se sont engagés à verser 26,7 M€ pour le projet de capacité d'hélicoptère de prochaine génération (NGRC, acronyme de Next Generation Rotorcraft Capability). Ces pays se pencheront sur l'amélioration de l'autonomie et de la vitesse d'un hélicoptère de transport moyen, ses capacités dans un scénario de guerre électronique pour commencer. Les missions envisagées pour cet appareil comprennent le transport, l'évacuation médicale, la recherche et le sauvetage et l'assaut. Le nouvel aéronef devra avoir un rayon d'action de plus de 1 650 km sans ravitaillement, avec une endurance de huit heures et une capacité de charge comprise entre 10 et 17 tonnes. L'objectif, à l'image du programme NH90, qui est jusqu'alors est le dernier programme d'étude et de construction d'un hélicoptère polyvalent ayant réuni plusieurs industriels européens, est de développer une cellule commune pour les variantes terrestres, aériennes et maritimes.
