Mission
The
Liberty
2500TT is a single-engine, dual-seat, multi-mission capable, advanced
turbine rotorcraft. Its flying characteristics are similar to other
multi-bladed rotor systems in civilian and military rotorcraft.
Features
Designed by LHL the L-2500TT’s low fuel consumption, light weight
construction, and low maintenance cost, helps reduce the overall total ownership
and operational cost of this multi-purpose rotorcraft. This rotorcraft can be
configured for a variety of mission including: Search and Rescue (SAR), Airborne
Law Enforcement (ALE) missions, Reconnaissance, Surveillance, Environmental
Protection, Drug Interdiction and Patrol.
The L-2500T is powered by a powerful multi stage gas power turbine engine that
delivers up to 420 shaft horsepower.
.
Because of its excellent
power-to-weight ratio, the rotorcraft can perform an initial climb of 2,000 ft
or (609 m) per minute and can reach 10,000 ft or (3048 m) in less than five
minutes.
This rotorcraft can be ordered with a variety of advanced avionics and display
options dependent on mission requirements.
