M28 IS A COST EFFECTIVE CIVIL/MILITARY

CERTIFIED PLATFORM WITH CAPABILITY AS

EXPLANATION WHY

M28 IS A COST EFFECTIVE CIVIL/MILITARY

CERTIFIED PLATFORM WITH MRITIME

CAPABILITY AS MEDIUM SIZE MPA

Let us to justify why…



SAFETY IN ALL CONDITION

(-50OC TO +50OC)

Proven operation in extreme conditions with high range and load

(from arctic, through sea and tropical environment) on unprepared airports as well

as from big airports.

- Powerfull engines for opration with high load vs range on high altitude airport

and very high ISA conditions as well as with one engine inoperative.

- Proven unique bleed air anty icing instalation certified to fly into known icing

(FIKI) with low maintenace

PLATFORM SAFETY - SUMMARY

Perfomace

- Powerfull PT6A-65B engine (safe one engine operation)

- Low stall speed

- Best in class bleed-air ani icing system

(for flight into known icing)

Equimpment and avioinics supporting maritime missions

- Glass Cockpit

- Mission pattern

- EGIs

- FMSs

29



SUMMARY – M28 ADVANTAGES

• Flying in extremly hot and cold conditions

• Safe flight even with one engine inoperative (even in known icing condition – best in class bleed air installation).

• Hi manueverability and very low stall speed (xx)

• Doors opened in flight (raft drops, light bomb drops etc),

• Most of M28 aircrafts holds Civil EASA/FAA certificate

• Comfortable cabin with high ceeling

• Optimized size of the platform equipped as medium size MPA with high payload vs long endurance (6 hours is opimal for the crew and mission effieciency – no need of backup crew).

• Avionics supporting maritime operation (search pattern, FLIR pointing etc.) zdjecie glass z profilem

• Safe in all weather condition

• Great visibility from cabin and cockpit (bubble windows)

• Extremly STOL capability allows operation from very short runways (i.e. small islands)

30



SUMMARY - DISADVANTAGES (IF ANY)

- Not presurrized cabin (from experience typical mission

altitude is 1500-3000ft., quick raft dropping)

- Fixed landing gear may potential cause reflection of search

radar (but currently software corrected with slightly lower

range, but allows landnig on unpaved runways).

- Retracted gear may extend range but reduce payload and

limit unpaved ranways landing.
