PCT4266230: Helicoptere Lynx HAS-2 produced by Westland (Yeovil, UK) for the Royal Navy. Prototype XX469 flying over a snowy mountain peak in 1973, perhaps in the Alps after the aircraft was transferred to Marignane (France) on behalf of Aerospatiale. Medium-sized machine equipped with a foldable quadriblade rotor (to facilitate operations on flight decks), equipped with a tricycle landing gear and capable of carrying a wide range of weapons and electronic systems. One of the innovative features of the Lynx was its two rear wheels of 27¡ to facilitate manoeuvring on ships. / Bridgeman Images
