Today’s complex warfare environment, characterized by Low Intensity Conflicts (LIC) and Asymmetric Warfare, coupled with limited defense budgets, has created a demand for operational versatility, especially for rotary wing platforms.
LEAP converts utility helicopters into multi-role platforms, with minimal increase in weight. A helicopter capable of performing a wide variety of missions such as: attack, close support, self-defense, troops evacuation, Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR), intelligence, as well as peace-time utility mission is a valuable asset and saves Life Cycle Cost (LCC).
