14 aw 139m pour l'Algérie avec système de vision IR et 28 casques adaptés compris dans un deal à 263 millions d'euros
Elicotteri in volo anche verso l’Algeria del presidente Bouteflika, che grazie all’Italia si sta praticamente rifacendo l’arsenale militare visto che il governo Monti ha emesso autorizzazioni per il ministero della Difesa algerino per quasi 263 milioni di euro, in gran parte destinati all’acquisto di 14 elicotteri Agusta Westland AW139 comprensivi di apparecchiature per la visone all’infrarosso e 28 caschi militari.
A noter qu'il y a 3 versions équipées de systèmes optiques IR qui sont:
COAST GUARD
The AW139M provides Coast Guard and Border Protection Agencies with unrivalled multi-mission capability. Able to operate from ashore and at sea, the AW139M high performance search radar, Electro-Optic / Infra Red (EO/IR) device, video recording and downlink , Automatic Identification Systems (AIS), personnel insertion/extraction equipment including hoist, fast rope and rappelling, and armament, including 12.7mm sniper rifle and 7.62mm and 12,7mm machine guns, provides commanders with the ideal platform for medium-range Search and Rescue, EEZ and Border Patrol, Immigration and Customs Enforcement , Counter Drug, Anti-Piracy, and other Law Enforcement missions. Crew and occupants can be protected by modular armour protection in the cabin and cockpit and, subject to market demand, additional kits will become available including armoured pilot and co-pilot seats to improve crew protection, ballistic-tolerant self-sealing fuel tanks.
HOMELAND SECURITY
The AW139M provides Law Enforcement Agencies with exceptional multi-mission capability in all weathers including icing. The AW139M equipped with weather radar, high performance Electro-Optic / Infra Red (EO/IR) device, video recording and downlink, personnel insertion/extraction equipment including hoist, fast rope and rappelling, modular armour and armament including 12.7mm sniper rifle and 7.62mm and 12,7mm machine guns, provides law enforcement and homeland security commanders with the ideal platform for Homeland Security, Counter Terrorism, Border Patrol, Counter Drug, Immigration and Customs Enforcement and other Law Enforcement missions. Subject to market demand, additional kits will become available including: armoured pilot and co-pilot seats to improve crew protection and ballistic-tolerant self-sealing fuel tanks.
MARITIME PATROL
With its multi-role design, the AW139M provides added utility and effect to any maritime operator. Able to successfully operate at sea with folding blades, tie down system and corrosion protection, the AW139M will significantly extend the operational area and effect of its host maritime platform. Using its high performance search radar, Electro-Optic / Infra Red (EO/IR) device, and Automatic Identification Systems (AIS), the aircraft has the ability to autonomously detect, classify and identify surface- and land-based targets. These can be engaged directly using the AW139M weapons or in-directly, calling on third-party weapons capability. Armament options include 12.7mm sniper rifle, 7.62mm General Purpose Machine Guns, and 12.7mm Heavy Machine Guns. Crew and occupants can be protected by modular armour protection in the cabin and cockpit. A Missile Approach Warning System (MAWS) and Counter Measures Dispensing System (CMDS) provides self-protection from missiles. IFF and Blue Force Tracker are also available. Subject to market demand, additional kits will become available including: IR suppressors to reduce the already low thermal signature of the AW139, armoured pilot and co-pilot seats to improve crew protection, ballistic-tolerant self-sealing fuel tanks, as well as weapons aiming and an external stores system (ESS) capable of carrying Heavy Machine Gun pods and 2.75” (70mm) air-to-ground rockets.
l'Algérie qu'on insulte dans tous ses gestes quotidiens
rappellera que la discorde ne naît jamais d'un malentendu
mais de la méconnaissance et de l'irrespect.
Je sais mon ami, je me rappelle de l'annonce, c'était juste pour les détails du contrat et les précisions sur l'équipement des hélicos.

Sur la photo c'est une version CSAR mais bon ça mérite un thread à part (pour le moment on va la mettre dans la partie AAF en attendant plus d'info sur l'affectation )
Allah ibarak macha Allah alf mabrok jncha Allah a d'autres acquisition aussi importantes Tahya al-Djazaïr el madjd ou

Nos frontières terrestres sont estimées a plus ou moins 6400km.
Le rayon d'action maximum de chaque appareil est de 1250km.
Avec 14 appareils, les GGFs seraient dotes de moyens aériens propres qui couvriraient leur besoin (ils pourront toujours faire appel a l'AAF pour du renfort).
Etant donne que le contrat a ete signe en 2012, esperons que ces appareils entreront en service prochainement. On en a grand besoin.
Je pense que les GGF unités de la gendarmerie nationale dont les membres obéissent a une certaine sélection méritent d’être doté de moyens roulant rapides et sophistiqués afin de assurer une bonne protection des hommes pendant les opérations et leur permettre d’agir rapidement et efficacement ce qui ne laisserai aucune chance aux criminelles trafiquants et contrebandiers .
