Perhaps one of its greatest claims to fame was in 1986 when a specially modified Lynx with a set of advanced experimental rotors set an absolute speed record of 400.87km/h (216.45 knots, 249.09 mph), an achievement that still stands as the official Fédération Aéronautique Internationale record. The Lynx has supported the Army on active service in Bosnia, Kuwait, Afghanistan and Sierra Leone and has been operational in all climates from Southeast Asia to Northern Ireland via Antarctica and has taken its place in every major British military operation over the past 40 years. Over 450 Lynx helicopters were built and the twin-engined jet turbine model was made in several variants, including a Navy version with foldable rotors, a tricycle undercarriage and a deck restraint system to allow it to operate from destroyers and frigates.
Introduced into service in 1978 as a multi-purpose military helicopter, this twin-engine rotorcraft was already ahead of its time with its loop-the-looping aerobatics combined with a formidable reputation as a tank-busting, anti-armour, search-and-rescue, reconnaissance and anti-submarine battle horse. Publishers use these marks when books are returned to them.The iconic Lynx helicopter, backbone of the British Army and the Royal Navy alike, took a final flypast across the skies of southern England this year, ending in a V-shaped ‘air procession’ along the River Thames in central London to mark its formal retirement from a career spanning some 40 years of active service.
