Airbus A400M successfully completed a new certification test by successfully refueling two helicopters in the air.
During the tests that took place in France, two French H225M helicopters carried out air-to-air refueling operations at various altitudes between 1000 and 10000 feet in day and night conditions. In addition, the A400M reduced its speed up to 105 knots to refuel the helicopters.
With this certification, the A400M has become one of the few tanker aircraft in the world that can perform such operations.
