The Westland Lynx is a multi-role helicopter of British production with a full metal structure with a fixed landing gear, in a classic arrangement with a main rotor and a tail rotor on a beam. The drive is provided by two Rolls-Royce 42-1 turboshaft engines with a power of 1015 hp each. The first prototype flew in 1971, and serial production began in 1978 and is still ongoing. By 2009, about 450 helicopters of this type had been produced. The machine was also produced under license in France by Aerospatiale.. The Westland Lynx was created to replace the Westland Scout and Westland Wasp helicopters. During its design, special emphasis was placed on the high reliability of the entire machine, good performance and attempts were made to maintain high susceptibility to modernization. These goals were achieved. During serial production, two main development versions of the helicopter were created: the first, designated as Lynx AH.1, was dedicated to the army's military aviation and was used as a transport and anti-tank helicopter. Several of its subversions were also created, such as the Lynx AH.7 with a fuselage and rotor made to a greater extent of composites and with richer avionics. The second main version was designated as Lynx HAS.1 - it served as an anti-submarine helicopter (ASW) and a search and rescue machine. This version also underwent numerous modifications and received several subversions, e.g. HAS.3. Westland Lynx helicopters have successfully taken part in many armed conflicts, including the Falklands War (1982) and both wars with Iraq (1990-1991 and 2003). They have also been exported to several countries, including Brazil, Denmark and Germany.
