WILDCAT At Sea – the next generation small helicopter for the Fleet Air Arm, the WILDCAT HMA.2 is undertaking the latest series of trials by practising landing aboard Landing Ship RFA MOUNTS BAY. 700W Naval Air Squadron – the Squadron formed especially to bring the new helicopter into service reports that the WILDCAT performed beyond expectations, building on the noteworthy lineage of the LYNX which has been operating from the flight decks of Royal Navy warships for over 30 years.   Aircrew have been flying by day and night – latter courtesy of night vision kit – on to and off the deck of the RFA MOUNTS BAY as they take another important step down the road to introducing the helicopter into front line service.    The WILDCAT has already carried out trials at sea on the Aviation Traing Ship RFA ARGUS (its first deck landing) and the Type 23 Frigate IRON DUKE (first time on a frigate).
