Eurocopter is renowned for launching new models at major trade shows and Heli-Expo was no exception. The Marignane-based company chose the event to unveil the EC135P3/T3, which features a number of improvements over the version currently in production. This latest variant of the light twin helicopter features optimised software for the FADEC (full authority digital engine control) system, 100mm (4in) longer rotor blades and enhanced air intakes compatible with inlet barrier filters. The combined effect of the improvements provides a 30kg (66 lb) increase in the maximum take-off weight to 2,980kg (6,570 lb) and better performance in hot-and-high environments. The EC135T3 also features auxiliary fuel tanks and a new interior design.

В то время как полицейские на земле легко теряли убегающего преступника из вида, вертолеты, оснащенные FLIR, могли наблюдать за целью,ориентируясь по выделяемому ею теплу (при использовании тепловизора).
