1 Foreword
®
The H215 is a twin engine helicopter (8.6 tons class / 9.35 tons in external load configuration) that
belongs to the famous SUPER PUMA / COUGAR family. Over 964 units, with total flight time in
excess of 5,370,000 Flight Hours have been delivered to date, both for serving governmental
(military and parapublic missions) and commercial operators.
The H215, operated by two crew members, is a 20 seats (troop) / 17 seats (commercial
passengers) fast helicopter with long range capabilities. Its agility allows the H215 to access
confined landing area, including high and hot environment thanks to its powerful engines, and,
sandy atmosphere thanks to its multipurpose engine air intakes and its 4 axis AFCS (automatic
flight control system).
®
Technical advancements developed by Airbus Helicopters on the H215 include modular design of
the mechanical assemblies, use of composite materials, all-weather IFR capability, “On Condition”
maintenance for most of the equipment items and several transmission assemblies and
improvement of the survivability in case of crash.
Based on a shorter frame, the H215 aerial work has an increased payload and full hook capacity
(4.5 tons). It perfectly matches any kind of aerial work/utility (with internal or external loads) such as
firefighting missions.
The life cycle cost of the H215 is extremely competitive and adapted for governmental/commercial
operations in harsh environment where aircraft serviceability and high flying pace are key success
factors.

Cockpit
The Automatic Flight Control System is a 4-axis dual duplex digital auto-pilot, fully integrated with
the avionics and offering full operationality after failure.
The AFCS comprises two (duplex architecture) Automatic Flight Control Computers (AFCCs) which
are linked to the MFDs and controlled by two control panels located within close reach of each
crew member, and several stick buttons. Each AFCC includes 2 separate processing units (dual
architecture) which self-monitor themselves. In case of failure, the standby AFCC takes full control
over the actuators and resumes the operation.

4 Mission Configuration
The H215 is a safe, reliable, powerful and versatile helicopter. It is known for its rugged design,
excellent payload lift performance and demonstrated ability to operate in the most austere
environments.
H215 Aerial work proposed mission package includes the four-axis automatic flight control system
(AFCS) providing unrivalled precision and stability in even the harshest operating environments, wich
enable safer operations with limited pilot workload even in hover.
The proposed package configuration is done by Airbus Helicopters using its years of experience in
making helicopters and in coordination with many SUPER PUMA operators around the world.
Based an the shorter airframe, H215 aerial work mission configuration has an increased payload and
full hook capacity (4.5 cargo sling). It perfectly matches any kind of aerial work/ utility (with internal or
external loads) such as firefighting missions.
A list of equiment named “further available equipment” is provided in addition to the “mission package”
in order to meet more specific needs of our customers.

document. This list does not claim to cover the whole of the worldwide operational requirements
nor the equipment not specifically related to the helicopter (for example: life jacket) or necessary
for particular missions (for example: supplemental oxygen). The operator is responsible for
ascertaining with his local authorities that the planned configuration of the helicopter complies
with regulatory requirements for the area(s) of operations and the type(s) of mission(s)
considered.
