NH90 MTOW

[AAKEE]

Didn't find a useful thread to continue in...

Are there any verison of the NH90 that has an other or higher MTOW('Maximum weight' in the manual) than 10.600kg for internal load ?

I'm hearing these rumours about some versions that has a MTOW of 11.000kg for internal load...

The only thing I know for sure is 10.600kg for internal load and up to 11.000kg with external load.


Another, perhaps trickier question: Does anyone here know if all versions have the same CG-limits ?

[AAKEE]

No one that knows ?

Google didnt help much...

NFH MTOW ?

Naval variants are qualified for 11,000 kg internal:

I/C

Than you Ian :)

And if so, I guess they also have +400kg for external, making it 11400kgs ?
(I found some news about French NH90 deplyoing for Mali, stating that they left base at 11.400kgs).

Know anything about CG-limitations for those ?
