- Three NH90 helicopters were put through their paces as part of an intensive flying training programme around Waiouru.
It was the first time that the NH90 had carried fully equipped troops and it was also the first low level formation flying had been undertaken away from Ohakea, which is a significant milestone in the training and testing of the aircraft and crew.
Happy to see these in our skies
The camo works so good in Waiouru! Love it.
New camo looks even better lol
@@muttosaur1813 Yeah this old MCU camo was shit for everything else
that new multicam blends in with the field so well
I STILL miss the Huey's 😁
Same but these are more practical
I shared the movie on the FB page of your NH90 colleagues in Belgium. I think they will be a bit jealous about the nice sceneries you guys are able to fly in. Great movie !
What do you mean movie? This is just a training video? The Royal New Zealand Airforce work side by side with the Royal New Zealand Nay and New Zealand Army in trainings like these.
many happy landings to my friends of the New Zealand Air Force.

Those NH90's look awesome.
Nice to see the new tech, they look awesome!
Gorgeous
I hope to be piloting these in a couple of years
Cryopinacle keep hoping kid
Awesome! 👍🇳🇿
My dream right here to be a load master
Wow, that helo looks awesome
hi there greetings from Greece!
This NH90 is made in Autralia, after a technology transfer contract signed by eurocopter and the other company of the Nato Helicopter Consortium.
The other helicopter at the beginning is (i think) an Agusta.
Awesome by the way !
Louis Bressenot Australias were, ours were made in France.
+Louis Bressenot I can only confirm this, I saw one of the New Zealand NH90s during a testflight from Bordeaux-Marignane, France.
I saw the delivery antonov arrive from Indonesia with them at Ohakea. they are french
+Louis Bressenot The Australian MRH90 variant is made in Australia, the NH90 is NZ uses is made in France
*Assembled in France. Made in 5 different countries, including France.
Cant wait so keen
can't wait to ride in one of these once i get accepted to the Reserve!
Did you get accepted? and have you been for a ride?
@@nzdarkelf2451 TF used it on their last intake
Impressed, nice helos
I WANT ONE!
How does this compare to MI-8TV?
Nice choppers!
After graduating from university in 2023, I will probably move to live with my cousin and her husband in New Zealand and will be naturalized in New Zealand.
I hope If I have a chance, I'll try to join The RNZ Air Force
Over 40 will be Up for sale soon Australia has grounded all there fleet due to crashes and breakdowns and are retireing them early and going back to buying Blackhawks
very modern but costly aircraft....
NH90 ? It's a French helicopter developed by Eurocopter .I've seen a "Dauphin" too.
NH industries the designers and producer of the NH-90 is owned by air bus. A French company.
so what? NH should have thought about them fitting into a C-130 though? that was the only, bad call on the deal? That and we'd still have a Strike-Wing! Thanks Mr Clark!
+Jazzaconda Clarke as a back bencher when the Skyhawks were being off loaded said that if she ever gets into power she will get rid of the skyhawks... well it happened... why I never ever voted for it because I new it was on the agenda... but nobody listened and every body has short memories...
+Jazzaconda Why would you want to fit them in a plane? They are perfectly capable of fitting inside the NZ Navy frigates
The NH90 can not fit on the frigates ... however they can be transported by HMNZS Canterbury... but sometimes speed is needed to get the helo into the field of operation not waiting on delivery by sea that can take a week or two... and there may be times when Canterbury is under maintenance and not available to transport ...
Wacky Wood Works Sorry that's what I meant to put *the navy's multi role... Also there is pretty much nowhere that isn't reachable in NZ territories within hours by ship. If they wanted them to be transported by air they'd buy a C-17.
Bruh our navy uses this i live in Australia
dude... we're not in Afghanistan anymore man.. and when we were we were building schools... seriously, NZ is an international security force we protected civilians and built shit for them, we didn't actively engage on the front line..
Mean maori mean
we look like US marines now hah.
All these comments from people who must know nothing about helicopters, what peices of garbage twice the price as black hawks with half the capability NONE being offensive. That's when they haven't broken down or been transported back to the factory to be fixed on Australian air force planes (bet that's cheap) must have been a massive payoff to someone
You are the one who clearly knows nothing about helicopters just listening in on the media talking shit, curb your stupidity.
WTF are you smoking champ??
There all grounded in Australia at the moment due to two crashes more than 40 of them Aussie replacing with Blackhawks
That seems a tad more wasteful than using it for what it was designed for.
Dropping off "terrorist" suspects for torture by our very good friends at a location near you, soon!
