In preparation for Lynx deployments to Afghanistan on Operation Herrick in the hot, high and dusty conditions, the Army Air Corps decided to upgrade the current Lynx AH.9 s to AH.9A standard. The upgrade consisted of a more powerful CTS800-4N engine (similar to that in the Wildcat), stronger airframe structure, a better communications system, more firepower and an advanced instrument and electronic fit. ![]() |
