MISSION PROVEN

The MD 969 Twin Attack Helicopter sets the standard for performance, reliability, and safety in the light twin-engine Attack Helicopter class. The multi-mission helicopter is certified single-pilot IFR, powered by two Pratt and Whitney 207E engines with Category A capability, and features the MDHI-exclusive NOTAR® system for anti-torque and directional control.

The up-to-8-place MD 969 Twin Attack Helicopter safely and effectively executes a broad range of military, para-military and utility missions including Light Attack, Combat Search & Rescue, CASEVAC/MEDEVAC, Command & Control, and Personnel Transport.

With an integrated composite 6-station weapons plank, the MD 969 Twin Attack Helicopter can be custom configured to carry an efficient combination of suppressive fire and precision weapons, including:

• HMP 400 Pod with .50 cal M3P Heavy Machine Gun• RMP .50 cal / 2.75” Rocket Combo• GAU-19/A .50 caliber Gatling gun• M134 7.62mm Minigun, fixed forward or crew served• M260/LWL12/M261 Rocket Pods• Guided and unguided 70mm / 2.75” rockets• Hellfire Guided Missiles• AGM-176 Griffin Missiles

The only helicopter in its class to feature NOTAR® no-tail rotor technology, the MD 969 Twin Attack Helicopter delivers reduced noise and vibration, reduced pilot workload, and less sensitivity to wind direction. It is able to land in confined or high-brush areas, has a 360° safe ground operation, and is less susceptible to small arms fire than helicopters with conventional tail rotors.

SAFE T Y

The MD 969 Twin Attack Helicopter features an all-composite main rotor system and primarily composite fuselage for enhanced performance and reliability. Combined with the safety features of the NOTAR® system, the MD 969 Twin Attack Helicopter is an effective choice for both urban and shipboard operations.

The MD 969 Twin Attack Helicopter also boasts the most spacious interior in its class. It can be easily configured and reconfigured to meet an ever-changing array of requirements, from Aerial Combat and Special Forces missions to Troop and Cargo Transport, CASEVAC/MEDEVAC and Light Attack.
