EA-26 Attack Helicopter (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=68324&highlight=)

After years of being produced solely for the Elias military the Ministry of Defence Procurment and Export has approved the type for export sale. The design is not revolutionary but is based on a well proven, reliable and devasatingly powerful airframe that has been modified and upgraded by the Elias Aerospace Corporation to make it even more capable.

EA-26 Combat Helicopter

Airframe

The coaxial rotor design provides a hovering ceiling of 4,000m and vertical rate of climb of 12m/s at an altitude of 5,000ft. The rotor blades are made from polymer materials. The coaxial-rotor configuration results in moments of inertia values relative to vertical and lateral axes being between 1.5 to 2 times less than the values found in single rotor helicopters with tailrotors. Absence of the tail rotor enables the helicopter to perform flat turns within the entire flight speed range. A maximum vertical g-load of 3.5 combined with low moments of inertia give the Ka-50 a high level of agility.

Extensive all-round armour installed in the cockpit protects the pilot against 12.7mm armour piercing bullets and 25mm projectile fragments. The rotor blades are rated to withstand several hits of ground-based automatic weapons.

The EA-26 one of the world's first operational helicopter with a rescue ejection system, which allows pilot to escape at all altitudes and speeds.


Weapons

Numerous weapons options for the helicopter are carried on external wing stores with different combination of anti-tank missiles, rockets, air-to-air missiles. From the point of view of the weapons power is superior to all existing combat helicopters.

Avionics

The on-board multifunctional avionics suite ensures round-the-clock helicopter piloting, navigational and combat tasks in anytime of the year. The avionics suite is comprised of a multiplexed, multi-level digital computer-based system having large storage capacity and high speed. Observation, search and targeting systems comprising head-mounted display are used for round-the-clock and all-weather detection of specified targets and their attack using optical, TV, laser, IR and radar equipment.

EA-26 is fitted with s radar warning receiver, electronic warfare system and chaff and flare dispenser as standard

Specifications

Powerplants: 2 EPE-19M turboshafts producing 2625 shp each.

Performance:

Cruising speed: 160 knots.
Max Speed: 176 knots
Max Range: 325 nautical Miles (approx. endurance 2h 15 min)

Armament:
1x 30mm Chain Gun, stub wings can each carry up to twelve AT/AA missiles or up to four rocket pods, wingtips can carry a further two missiles.

Versions

EA-28 Light/Scout Special Forces Helicopter (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=66401)

The Elias Aerospace Corporation is proud to unveil its latest helicopter which once again demonstrates our ingenuity and technological capabilities. The EA-28 Helicopter is a helicopter designed to meet a requirement from the Elias Air Force for a combat scout and a light utility helicopter. It is an ideal replacement for OH-59 ‘Kiowa’ and OH-6 ‘Little Bird’ types that serve in many armed services around the world.
The helicopters basic airframe is extremely flexible and can be used for a variety of different roles.

Features (All versions)

The Most notable feature of the design is the NOTAR anti-torque system which eliminates the need for a tail rotor improving survivability and making ground operations safer for both the aircraft and people on the ground. The modular structure incorporates other crashworthy and damage-tolerant features, including a five-bladed, bearing less main rotor. The fuselage is mainly of aluminium-lithium construction. The aerodynamic rotor blades are constructed from carbon/glass with nomex honeycomb and rohacell foam. Active vibration control of the structural response uses a vibration-cancelling technique.

The helicopter operates in temperatures ranging from -20 to +50 degrees C. An ice protection system allows operation in icing conditions. An engine inlet particle separator system provides protection in sandy environments. Durable, light weight skids made of composite materials permit operation from soft or rough terrain. The unique design of the helicopter allows it to land in small clearings and other confined areas where most other helicopters would not be able to.

The cockpit is equipped with armoured crew seats able to withstand an impact velocity of 35ft per second. Dual flight controls are provided for the pilot and co-pilot, but the helicopter is capable of being flown by a single pilot. The electronic instrument system includes four high-definition full-colour displays, together with a digital mission (military versions only), the controls feature 70% commonality with the much larger EA-28 helicopter to simplify the amount of training needed to change type. Every version is equipped with a FLIR mounting and is cleared for full night time operation.

All Versions can be quickly converted for the medical evacuation/ air ambulance role with room for two stretchers and a medical attendant.

Every Version can accommodate an under slung external load of up to 3,500lb

All military Versions can be fitted with steel benches above the weapon hardpoints for a maximum of three persons on each side, although two is more advisable

All helicopter versions can be upgraded with a full protection suite of Electronic counter measures, chaff/flare dispensers. $80,000 (standard on some versions)

Specifications applicable to all versions:

Powerplants: 2 EPE-16B turboshafts producing 645 shp each.

Performance:

Cruising speed: 145 knots.
Max Speed: 160 knots
Max Range: 395 nautical Miles (approx. endurance 3 h 36 min)

Versions:

-EA-28A Standard Utility, 4.5 million
Crew: 1/2 Pilot(s), Capacity: 6, Armament: None

This version is not designed for civilian use in a variety of utility roles

-EA-28C Military Utility Combat Scout Version. 5.2 million
Crew: 1 Pilots + 1 Pilot/Observer. Capacity: 6 Armament: two hardpoints for either gun pods or free flight rocket pods. Features: Armour plated cockpit and passenger compartment.

This Version is the basic military version and is equipped with armour and hardpoints for armament. It can accommodate a maximum of six troops in a somewhat cramped passenger compartment. Alternatively in a medevac role it can accommodate up to two stretchers and a medical attendant.

-EA-28E law Enforcement Version 5 million

Mi-26 Ultra-heavylift Helicopter (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=45332&highlight=)

Mi-26 HALO

The Elias Aircraft Corporation is now builing the mi-26 helicopter for export.

The Mi-26 helicopter, the heaviest and most powerful helicopter in the world, was designed for carrying large-size cargoes weighing up to 20 tons. It is the result of an early 1970s specification for a transport helicopter whose empty weight, without fuel, was not to exceed half of its maximum take-off weight. It can be used for construction projects ranging from bridges to power transmission lines. The combination of high load-carrying capacity and high cruise speed makes the use of the helicopter economically efficient.

The helicopter is loaded through the cargo hatch in the tail of the fuselage with lowered ladder and subladders. The cargo cabin is equipped with two electric hoists and lifting and loading devices ensuring loading and carrying along the cabin of cargoes weighing up to 5 tons.

The Mi-26 is the first helicopter with an eight-blade main rotor, which is mounted above the fuselage midsection on a hump. Two turboshaft engines are mounted on top of the cabin with round air intakes above and behind the cockpit and exhaust ports at the sides of the engines. The long, bus-like body with fixed tricycle landing gear tapers to the nose and rear, with an upswept rear section and rounded nose and stepped-up cockpit. The tail is swept-back with a slightly tapered fin with large rotor on right side. The flats are forward-tapered and low-mounted on leading edge of the fin.

The load and lift capabilities of the aircraft are comparable to the US C-130 Hercules transport aircraft. The length of the landing gear struts can be hydraulically adjusted to facilitate loading through the rear doors. The tailskid is retractable to allow unrestricted approach to the rear clamshell doors and loading ramp. The cargo compartment has two electric winches (each with 2,500 kg capacity) on overhead rails can move loads along the length of the cabin. The cabin floor has rollers and tie-down rings throughout. The HALO has a closed-circuit television system to observe positioning over a sling load, and load operations. The Mi-26 is capable of single-engine flight in the event of loss of power by one engine (depending on aircraft mission weight) because of an engine load sharing system. If one engine fails, the other engine’s output is automatically increased to allow continued flight.

VARIANTS 3 available

Mi-26MS: Medical evacuation version.
(21 million)

Mi-26T: Freight transport.

Mi-26TZ: Fuel tanker with an additional 14,040 liters of fuel in 4x internal tanks and 1,040 liters of lubricants, pumped through 4x 60-meter long refueling nozzles for refu-eling aircraft, and 10x 20-meter long hoses for refueling ground vehicles. Fuel transfer rate is 300 liters/minute for aviation fuel, and 75-150 liters/minute for diesel fuel. The refueling system can easily be removed to allow the aircraft to perform transport missions.

i will take 2 EA-26As and 2 EA-26Bs for the helicopters...the money has been wired to your account... but im still looking for some subs

The reson I asked how many, is due to the fact that you are 1 day old. While purchasing submarines and helicoptors is possible, the maintnance cost would bankrupt your nation. I suggest you start of with small fire arms ans assult rifles. You men will need training to operate subs and helos, which also cost a substantial amount of money. However, I am willing to sell you a couple of helicoptors...but my subs my be out of your tech range right now. I have two older helos available, they are:

Kamov KA50 Hokum @ $10 Million each
AH 1W Super Cobra @ $11 Million each

NOTE: That these prices are drastically reduced.

confirmed.
