当今的飞机、直升机,技术含量越来越大。全新产品因研制资金大、周期长、风险高而凤毛麟角。各国都把目光放在让老装备“发挥余热”上,最新的例子就是英国、意大利合作改进“山猫”直升机。英国韦斯特兰公司研制的“山猫”直升机在31年前,即1971年3月首飞,1976年开始在英海军及陆军中服役。“山猫”作为一种多用途的军用直升机,到目前为止已有20种不同改进型;共生产了380架。最近韦斯特兰公司与意大利奥古斯特公司合并后,又将“山猫”进行重大改进,以适应技术发展和客户的不同要求,推出了最新的“超山猫300”直升 Today’s aircraft, helicopters, increasing technical content. New products due to the development of large funds, long cycle, high risk and rare. All countries are paying attention to the old equipment “to exert the residual heat”. The latest example is the cooperation between the United Kingdom and Italy to improve the “Bobcats” helicopters. The British “Lynx” helicopter developed by Westland Company first flew 31 years ago in March 1971 and began to serve in the British Navy and the Army in 1976. As a multi-purpose military helicopter, Bobcats has so far been available in 20 different variants; a total of 380 were produced. After the recent merger between Westerland and Auguste Italia, “Bobcats” have been greatly improved to meet the different requirements of technology development and customers and introduced the latest “Bobcats 300” helicopter
