The AB412 is a twin-engine medium utility helicopter, primarily known for its four-bladed main rotor system. This design modification, replacing the original two-bladed rotor, greatly improved the aircraft’s performance and comfort, making it a dependable multi-role platform for civil, military, and law enforcement operations globally.
The manufacturer, Leonardo, is a global powerhouse in aerospace, defense, and security, with Italian roots tracing back over a century through various predecessor companies, including Agusta, which originally licensed and manufactured the Bell 412 model as the Agusta-Bell AB 412. Leonardo now carries on this legacy, producing, supporting, and continually modernizing aircraft like the AB412 and its current variants.
For maintenance and inspection, a comprehensive set of access platforms and stands is indispensable. The Reach Deck Platform, Modular Stepover Platforms, Super Trestle Scaffold, Ultraraise, Super Service Stand, Easyraise, Bridge Deck, Cantilever Platform, Aviation Chock and Cone Trolley, Super Maintenance Platform, Branach Fibreglass Platform, A Frame Aviation Platform, and Platform Ladder Warthog address maintenance needs across the aircraft.
These access solutions facilitate thorough maintenance for all aircraft sections. This includes the Nose Section (Radome, Antenna, Nose Avionics, Windshield & Cockpit, Bulkhead), Forward Fuselage (MED, Cargo/Baggage, Lighting Systems, Cabin Access, ECS, Forward Wheel Well Access), Landing Gear (NLG, MLG), Middle Fuselage / Wing Box Area (Wing Box, Fuel Tanks, Oil Maintenance, Cabin Interior, Wi-Fi, Emergency Exit), Wing & Engine Pylon (Pylon, Anti-Ice, Engine components, Hydraulics, Fuel Tanks/Pumps, Undercowl, Armpit), AFT Fuselage (AFT Bulkhead, AFT Cargo, AFT Cabin Doors, Auxiliary Fuel, Environmental Ducting, Rear Avionics, APU Compartments, Rear Inboard/Outboard), and the Tail Section/Empennage (APU Intake/Generator/Compressor/Exhaust Port, Vertical Stabiliser, Horizontal Stabiliser, Rudder). General Access platforms support all AF-BF requirements.
