Construction.<\/h3>\n
The SH-2G is a helicopter built in the classic Sikorski layout. The structure is completely metal and has two turbine engines. The machine is designed to be based on ships.<\/p>\n
The main rotor has 4 blades in the main rotor and the tail rotor. The main rotor blades are driven by servo motors instead of the swash plate. Second-generation composite main rotor blades (CMRB2) were mounted on the Super Seasprite, which includes filament-wound, S-glass rods, glass shells, aramid honeycomb cores and aramid trailing edges.<\/p>\n
The cockpit. The SH-2G has a crew of three: two pilots and a sensor operator (SENSO). (USN: pilot, co-pilot \/ tactical coordinator (TACCO), sensor operator (SENSO)) (RNZN: helicopter pilot, observer and loadmaster). The helicopter can also be piloted by a single pilot and SENSO, thanks to a flexible Integrated Tactical Avionics System (ITAS) designed by Kamana and Northrop Grumman (formerly Litton) Guidance & Controls. ITAS is powered by dual mission data processors and uses two dual 1553B data buses to integrate sensors, weapons, communications, and navigation equipment.<\/p>\n
The SH-2G is equipped with General Electric T700-GE-401 engines. The T700-401 model has a power of 1,723 shp (1,285 kW).<\/p>\n The helicopter can be equipped with a MAG58 machine gun in the right door, operated by the helicopter loadmaster. The helicopter has four nodes for armament and additional fuel tanks. Missiles: AGM-65 Maverick or AGM-119 Penguin anti-aircraft missiles, possibly different depending on the user’s country. 2 \u00d7 Mk 46 or Mk 50 ASW torpedoes or others.<\/p>\n Length 52 ft 9 in (15.9 m). Rotor diameter 45 ft 0 in (13.4 m). Height 15 ft 0 in (4.5 m). Curb weight 9,200 lb (4,170 kg). Payload weight 4,390 lb (1,991 kg). Maximum weight 13,500 lb (6,120 kg). Speed \u200b\u200blimit is 150 knots (278 km \/ h, 173 mph). Top speed of 138 knots (256 km \/ h; 159 mph). Cruising speed of 120 knots (222 km \/ h, 138 mph). Range 540 nmi (1,000 km, 869 mi). 18,000 ft (3,000 m) operating ceiling. Rate of climb: 2,500 ft \/ min (12.7 m \/ s).<\/p>\n Four SH-2G Super Seasprite helicopters, the only Polish on-board machines, are equipped with the 28th Polish Navy Aviation Squadron in Gdynia – Babie Do\u0142y. The helicopters are the 4 newest and last machines of this type produced for the US Navy. <\/p>\n 1 SH-2G Super Seasprite No.247 nb 3543, manufactured in 1993, delivered to Poland in 2002.<\/p>\n 2 SH-2G Super Seasprite No.248 nb 3544, manufactured in 1993, delivered to Poland in 2002.
