The helicopter will initially be used for passenger transportation for AJET, a helicopter services company that until now operated only Russian-made helicopters.

AJET chose the EC145 for its low operating and maintenance costs as well as the comfort of its spacious interior. This aircraft is at the top of its class in the medium-sized, twin-engine helicopter category. With up to 10 seats for pilots and passengers in standard configuration, this multi-mission helicopter combines Eurocopter’s latest developments such as an advanced cockpit design, avionics and a sophisticated electrical system. The EC145 is equipped with two powerful and reliable Turbomeca Arriel 1E2 engines which, in combination with its lifting system, provide outstanding performance and vital power reserves even in one engine inoperative scenarios. The excellent performance of the EC145 is well adapted to high altitudes and extreme temperatures, making it a perfect match for missions in Mongolia.

The company did not just stop at one EC145, as a second aircraf t of this kind is scheduled to be delivered in the months to come to support AJET’s missions. Both aircraft will perform passenger transportation missions in the short term, and could be used for rescue missions in the long term.
