Airbus Helicopters: EC130 T2

A new video : the EC130 T2 is the latest step in Airbus Helicopters' strategy to expand and evolve our helicopter lineup.

The EC130 T2 is a light single-engine helicopter including all the latest technology and a roomy modular cabin that can accommodate 1 pilot plus up to 7 passengers.

Airbus Helicopters unveils its new EC130 T2 with optimized performance, comfort and mission diversity. The EC130 T2 is powered by the new Arriel 2D engine, which combines a 6,000 hour mature TBO and improved fuel efficiency with an advanced dual-channel FADEC and 950 shp takeoff rating. Comfort in the T2 is greatly enhanced, thanks to an active anti-vibration control system, thereby ensuring passengers with the smoothest and coolest ride possible, as well as a new dual zone air conditioning system.
