315B Lama
The 315B Lama is a French single-engined helicopter and was originally designed to meet a Nepalese
Army Air Service and Indian Air Force requirement for a rotorcraft capable of undertaking operations
at hot and high conditions. Both countries possessed extreme mountain ranges in the form of the
Himalayas in which even relatively powerful medium-sized helicopters could not be effectively operated
within, thus there was an expressed desire for an aerial vehicle capable of operating in this
challenging environment. To achieve the desired performance, the company elected to combine elements
of two existing popular helicopters in their inventory, the Alouette II and the Alouette III to
produce a new rotorcraft specialised for high altitude performance. Specifically, the new helicopter,
named Lama, was equipped with the Alouette III's Turbomeca Artouste turboshaft powerplant and its
dynamic systems, and was furnished with a reinforced version of the Alouette II's airframe Source:
