Westland Super Lynx
The export naval Lynx with BERP blades, 360° radar and — later — CTS800 engines and a glass cockpit · In service 1990 (Mk.99, South Korea)
The Super Lynx of the early 1990s combined BERP rotor blades, Gem 42 engines, the reverse-direction tail rotor and a 360° radar under the nose. South Korea received its first Mk.99s (Seaspray 3 radar) in 1990, followed by 13 Mk.99As from 1999. Germany bought seven new Mk.88As and upgraded 17 Mk.88s, Portugal five Mk.95s, Oman 16 Mk.120s and Algeria Mk.130s armed with the Mokopa missile.
From the 1990s Westland offered the Series 200 with LHTEC CTS800 engines, and in 1998 launched the Super Lynx 300, which added a glass cockpit derived from the EH101; its demonstrator first flew on 12 June 2001. Malaysia's six Mk.100s and Thailand's Mk.110s are Series 300 aircraft, and Brazil's Mk.21B and Portugal's Mk.95A upgrades also moved to CTS800 power.
The Royal Navy's HMA.8 used much of the same technology, and the line ultimately led to the AW159 Wildcat.
