Helikopter - NH90 problemer i Afghanistan


German NH90 Experiences Flare Malfunction in Afghanistan

The flare dispensing system of one of the four German NH90 helicopters deployed to Afghanistan did not work properly on 11-12 April, the Bundeswehr announced today. During a flight to test the system on 12 April, flares could only be fired from one side of the helicopter, so the crew decided for security reasons to land in Mazar-e-Sharif.
