EADS obstacle warning system for Royal Thai Air Force
Two Bell 412 EP helicopters of the Royal Thai Air Force, which are being deployed for transporting VIPs, were equipped with the HELLAS (Helicopter Laser Radar Warning) obstacle warning system.
The HELLAS helicopter laser radar is the only operational warning equipment in the world that can protect helicopters reliably against obstacles such as high-voltage transmission lines. It scans its surroundings with a laser beam, which is not harmful to the human eye and detects even thin wire at a great distance and with high precision.
