Wildcat Helicopter

The new Wildcat helicopter is pictured during a training exercise with reservist ground crews from the Territorial Army.
It was the Armys first opportunity to work with the helicopter which is due in service in 2014.
6 Regiment Army Air Corps (Volunteers) is based in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. Its role is to provide ground crew for Apache and Lynx helicopters as reinforcements to other Army Air Corps regiments, both on exercise and operations.
With the emergence of the Wildcat, which will replace the current Lynx helicopter, training will be targeted to encompass this new capability, and this exercise provided the reservists with the opportunity to learn about working with the new Wildcat and become familiar with its refuelling and resupply.
The Wildcat will perform a range of tasks on the battlefield including reconnaissance, transportation of troops and materiel, and the provision of force protection. It will be significantly more powerful than the current Lynx, enabling it to operate in extreme hot conditions and at high altitudes

The British Army protects the United Kingdom's interests at home and abroad, providing a safe and secure environment in which all British citizens can live and prosper

EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the new Wildcat helicopter during a training exercise with reservist ground crews from the Territorial Army. This marked the Army's first opportunity to work with this advanced aircraft, set to be in service by 2014. Based in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, 6 Regiment Army Air Corps (Volunteers) plays a crucial role in providing ground crew support for Apache and Lynx helicopters as reinforcements to other Army Air Corps regiments during exercises and operations. With the impending arrival of the Wildcat, which will replace the current Lynx helicopter, training efforts have been focused on incorporating this new capability. The recent exercise allowed reservists to familiarize themselves with refuelling and resupply procedures specific to the Wildcat. Designed for versatility on the battlefield, the Wildcat will undertake various tasks including reconnaissance missions, transportation of troops and supplies, as well as providing force protection. Its increased power compared to its predecessor enables it to operate effectively even under extreme hot conditions or at high altitudes. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to both military innovation and collaboration between regular forces and reservists. Corporal Kellie Williams from RLC skillfully captured this historic moment that highlights our armed forces' commitment towards modernization and enhancing their operational capabilities.
