Army Air Corps Lynx Mk9A Helicopter Over Afghanistan
An Army Lynx Mk9A helicopter is pictured on operations over Helmand, Afghanistan.
Lynx has been used extensively within the Army Air Corps for a wide variety of roles and tasks. It is predominantly a battlefield utility helicopter although it has been used for both anti-tank and reconnaissance operations. The addition of door gunners has allowed Lynx to operate in the very close air support role in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Upgrades to Mk9A standard Lynx deliver more powerful engines, strengthened airframes, increased firepower and more advanced instruments and electronics, improving the helicopters performance in the extreme conditions of Afghanistan.
It is fitted with a more advanced communication system, improved surveillance equipment and the M3M Machine Gun - a 0.50" calibre weapon, capable of firing over 850 rounds a minute
