These types of operations often require:
- Operating into or out of difficult or
sloping terrain
- Flying/hovering in poor visibility such
as darkness, smoke, haze, dust etc
- Monitoring obstacles in darkness such
as trees, stumps or high voltage lines etc
- Terrain following or flying/hovering
close to the ground or water
- Pilot acquisition of target in darkness
or poor visibility
- Additional safety margins because of
dangerous roles
EVS provides the pilot with a video-like
image of the area in front of the helicopter, even in darkness.
This helps the pilot achieve better situational awareness in these
unfamiliar surroundings.
On a helicopter, where is EVS mounted?
The EVS can be mounted in the nose, on the belly or along the landing
skids of the helicopter.

display such as a Rosen or DeCrane LCD display.
