On June 25., the Navy officially took over the new multi-purpose helicopter NH-90 NTH Sea Lion. This will replace the Sea King Mk 41 in the medium term and take over its tasks, including sea rescue. The Naval Transport Helicopter, which can also be used for enlightenment, has significantly more sensors than the version of the army - such as navigation devices and a 360 degree sea space surveillance radar.
Despite a rotor diameter of over 16 and a length of just under 20 meters, the Sea Lion can land on all naval ships with a flight deck and can be embarked as an onboard helicopter on the Berlin-class emergency group providers. / Maik
