Abstract

The article announces that the Italian air force has accepted its first Sikorsky HH-3F combat search-and-rescue (CSAR) helicopter to have undergone an extensive avionics upgrade at AgustaWestland's Brindisi site in Italy. The upgrade was initially to have been applied to 28 of the air force's 35 HH-3F, but budget cuts have restricted the number. The upgraded HH-3F has received GPS-based navigation and satellite communications, head-up displays, night-vision goggles and radar warning receivers.
