The MBB Bölkow
Bo-105CBS-5 is a lightweight twin-engine
multi-role military helicopter. It is built by
the Eurocopter Group (since July 10, 2000 member
of EADS), owned 70% by Aérospatiale France and
30% by Daimler Aerospace (DASA) of Germany. The
military version of the Bo-105 include the
antitank version with weapon-carrying outriggers
and the scout version which has a mast-mounted
sight above the main rotor. Missions include:
direct air support, antitank, reconnaissance,
search and rescue, and transport. In addition to
reconnaissance, observation and surveillance
missions. Many civil operators use the Bo-105
for medical assistance by accidents. Also for
police operations is the Bo-105 perfect.
The Bo-105 was
developed initially by Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm
in Germany. Others are built in Chile, the
Philippines, Indonesia (NBo-105), and Spain
(CASA Bo-105/ATH).
