Anda Harus Baca Majalah Ini!!!!!

Hari ini Saya menerima Majalah Angkasa edisi 4 Januari 2012. Begitu majalah ada ditangan, Saya sudah tak sabar untuk membukanya. Bukan berlebihan namun dari covernya saja Saya sudah merasa terpanggil untuk membacanya. Desain cover yang exellent membuat rasa penasaran semakin kuat. Cara pengambilan gambar yang artistic dengan model pesawat yang cantik berpadu dengan background awan berpendar menyuguhkan pemandangan yang indah di pandang mata. Namun satu hal yang membuat majalah kali ini mempunyai daya tarik lebih, yaitu pesawat yang indah dan cantik itu adalah pesawat Colibri dari Skadron Udara 7.

PTDI Tawarkan Helikopter Pengganti Super Puma TNI AU

TEMPO Interaktif, BANDUNG - PT Dirgantara Indonesia menawarkan pembuatan helikopter EC 725 dan EC 225 untuk menggantikan helikopter super puma yang dipakai TNI Angkatan Udara."Tahun 2011 kita masih harus meyelasaikan tiga pesanan pesawat super puma untuk AU, setelah itu kami akan tawarkan heli tipe lain." kata Budi Santosa, Direktur Utama PT Dirgantara Indonesia ketika meresmikan pembuatan komponen helikopter EC 725 dan EC 225 di Bandung, Rabu (27/1)

Menurut Budi, PT Dirgantara Indonesia sebenarnya bisa merakit seluruh pesawat heli super puma dan bell yang selama ini dirakit didalam negeri."Tapi kalau pesananya banyak, tidak satu dua tentu ada batas minilanya." ujarnya.

Sejauh ini, sudah banyak yang yang memesan. Meski begitu, Budi enggan menjelaskan biaya satu pesawat helikopter pengganti super puma yang akan ditawarkan ke Departemen Pertahanan."Tahun ini kita menargetkan proyek sebesar Rp 1,6 triliun." ujarnya. "2010 negara tetangga juga merencanakan untuk memasan pesawat."

Henry Stell Direktur Utama Eurocopter Indonesia enggan menjelaskan berapa harga yang ditawarkan dan kontrak kerjasama untuk pembuatan satu pesawat helicopter tipe CEC 723 dan EC 225 militari."Kita memberikan harga yang kompetetif, kami percaya dengan komitemen kualitas yang diberikan PT DI, kalau tidak kami tidak akan di sini," ujarnya.

PT DI Buat Kerangka Helikopter Mutahir Eurocopter

BANDUNG (Pos Kota) – PT Dirgantara Indonesia (PT DI) dan Eurocopter Perancis meresmikan pembuatan rangka (airframe) helikopter mutakhir EC 725 / EC 225. Peresmian ditandai dengan penyerahan “rivet gun” dari Dirut PT DI, Budi Santoso dan VP Airframe Eurocopter, Andreas Stoeckle kepada dua karyawan PT DI Rabu (27/1) di hangar PT DI, Bandung.

Dirut PT DI, Budi Santoso dan VP Airframe Eurocopter, Andreas Stoeckle  mengatakan, kerjasama pembuatan rangka helikopter ini sebagai tindak lanjut dari kerjasama yang ditandatangani kedua perusahaan ini tahun 2008.

Menurut Budi Santoso, pihaknya mendapat kontrak membuat 125 unit rangka helikopter,  masing-masing bagian ekor (tailboom) dan bagian badan (fuselage). Kedua bagian itu merupakan bagian terbesar (lebih dari 50 persen) dari rangka helicopter. Sementara bagian lain, yakni mesin dan kock pit dikerjakan oleh Airframe Eurocopter. Rangka yang dibuat PT DI merupakan struktur utama pesawat terbang.

Dalam perjanjian, kata Budi, 125 unit rangka helikopter ini harus selesai tahun 2020. Sebagai tahap pertama PT DI harus menyerahkan rangka ini Oktober 2010, selanjutny dikirim ke Airframe Eurocopter untuk dirakit dengan komponen lain yang dibuat Eurocopter, Perancis.

Andreas Stoeckle dalam penjelasannya menyebutkan, helikopter EC 725 / EC 225, merupakan pengembangnan dari helikopter Super Puma yang pernah merajai pasar dunia. Dengan dibuatnya  “tailboom” dan “fuselage” di PT DI, berarti Eurocopter menjadikan PT DI sebagai pemasok utama komponen, karena kedua komponen tersebut merupakan bagian terbesar, lebih dari 50 persen dari pembangunan fisik pesawat, terdiri dari 4.000 komponen dasar dan 500 pekerjaan sub assembly untuk merakit komponen utama.

Eurocopter Product


Eurocopter, the world’s leading helicopter manufacturer, highlights once again its wide range of multipurpose products well adapted to the increasingly complex homeland security and defence missions faced by our governmental customers today.

This year, the company will be displaying its state-of-the-art military helicopters, the Tiger combat helicopter and NH90 tactical transport helicopter, both of which are in service with several European nations as well as Australia.




The Tiger, of which 206 units have been ordered, is currently under delivery to Germany, France, Australia and Spain. Its platform specially designed to integrate a wide variety of weapon systems ensures that the Tiger is able to meet the military requirements specified by each customer. After a build-up phase in the training centres based in Le Luc in France and Oakey in Australia, the Tiger is now beginning its operational life in the various Army Aviation Corps, in order to be deployed overseas as soon as possible.


The NH90 is the biggest military helicopter programme ever launched in Europe. The first four countries - France, Germany, Italy and The Netherlands - were quickly joined by other nations: Portugal, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Greece, the Sultanate of Oman, Australia, New Zealand, Spain and Belgium, which have all placed firm orders for the NH90. This amounts to 14 nations, with a total of 507 NH90s on order, an unparalleled success for a military helicopter programme, proof that the NH90 concept and design are perfectly adapted to the 21st century.












These two aircraft are joined by the EC120 - the lightest single-engine helicopter in Eurocopter’s range – destined primarily for training missions. In 2008, 36 units of the EC120 were ordered for the training school in DAX to train pilots from all the various military corps in France.










On Eurocopter’s stand (A350) will be featured 5 helicopter mock-ups, namely the AS550 EC135, EC145, AS565 and EC725.

The AS550, known as the Fennec, is a high performance single-engine helicopter mainly used for light fire support and escort roles. This helicopter, derived from the Ecureuil B3, is especially designed for high and hot environment. With close to 300 helicopters already delivered in 24 armed forces, the whole Ecureuil Fennec family has logged 13 million flight hours.



Among the light twin-engine aircraft, the newly improved EC135 stands out as the most widely used helicopter in parapublic services. The French Customs have recently replaced their fleet of AS355 F2 by 5 EC135 for maritime surveillance in the English Channel, the North and the Mediterranean Seas. In fall this year, the French Gendarmerie will also receive the first of the 12 EC135 ordered (plus 25 in option) to fulfill police missions.

In December 2007, the fleet of EC135/EC635 in service worldwide clocked up 1 million flight hours. With a strong footprint on all continents, more than half of the 615 EC135/EC635 helicopters in the world today can be found in Europe followed by North and South America. In terms of missions, the 2 main operations for the EC135/EC635 fleet are EMS (Emergency Medical Service) (49%) and Police (24%) missions.



The EC145, another light twin-engine helicopter, is the obvious choice to meet the demands of customers requiring a modern and spacious high-performance medium helicopter. In 2006, under the name UH72A Lakota, it won Eurocopter its first major contract on the American military market, with an order of up to 322 helicopters. In France, the Sécurité Civile is a major customer with a fleet of 30 EC145 clocking up more than 60 000 hours. No later than last December, 5 additional units (3 firm and 2 options) were ordered by the DGA (Délégation Générale pour l’Armement) to be operated by the Sécuité Civile from January 2009. The French Gendarmerie has also logged more than 15 000 hours on its fleet of EC 145 helicopters, a fleet which will reach as many as15 helicopters.



The AS565 Panther is a medium twin-engine helicopter designed to be operated all weather from ships and from ashore. From the proven Dauphin family, the Panther is able to cover a large number of naval missions such as maritime surveillance, SAR (Search and Rescue) operations, casualty evacuation etc. Equipped with state-of-the-art technology, the Panther is the most effective platform for 24 hour SAR operations. Renowned for its cost effectiveness, the Panther is a main asset for the US Coast Guards and is perfectly adapted to Navies and Coast Guard requirements.




The military SAR combat version of the EC725 continues to deliver an outstanding performance in the most sensitive theaters of operation. The French Armed Forces operate a total of 14 of these highly capable 11 ton class helicopters, with six serving the Air Force and eight with the Special Operations Detachment Unit (DAOS) of the French Army Air Corps (ALAT). The French Air Force is deploying some of its EC725s in Combat Search and Rescue (C-SAR) missions in hostile environments like Afghanistan to support the coalition forces, where it has proven to be an invaluable asset.



In order to ensure the maintenance of such a wide range of products, Eurocopter is constantly improving its portfolio of services in order to support its customers worldwide. The Group’s efforts no longer exclusively focus on product performance, but aim at establishing long-lasting contracts with customers, ensuring regular upgrades as well as a high availability and overall performance. Therefore, Eurocopter proposes today extensive global offer solutions in close cooperation with its customers. This collaborative concept enables the customers to concentrate on their operations, while Eurocopter takes care of all support activities.
