History of the Original

The EH-101 Merlin HMA.1 is a naval helicopter produced by AgustaWestland (now Leonardo), designed for anti-submarine warfare (ASW), detection and neutralization of surface targets, and search and rescue missions. This model was developed primarily for the UK's Royal Navy, entering service in the 1990s to replace the aging Sea King helicopters. The HMA.1 version was extensively used during NATO missions, including in the Balkans, operations in Iraq, and patrolling the North Atlantic during the Cold War and the early modern era.
