Enhanced APU For The H-60 Series and SH-2G Helicopters

Selection of the Garrett GTCP36-150[BH] for the H-60 series and SH-2G helicopters provides Aviation Systems Command (AVSCOM) with a reliable, low risk APU at an affordable cost. The GTCP36- 150[BH] is a derivative of the highly successful Garrett 36-Series engine family that has logged over 4.6 million hours of oper ation to date and demonstrated outstanding capability on the AH-64 Apache helicopter and the Army Ground Power Unit (AGPU) as well as several commercial aiiciaft applications. Garrett addresses the program philosophy and current status inherent to this customized auxiliary power unit (APU) which uses current production equipment adapted to meet the H- 60 form, fit, and function iequirements. In addition to meeting the installation requirements, the APU meets or exceeds all the performance requirements while providing enhanced reliability and maintainability. All of these APU advantages will be qualified to the U.S. Army's newest design standards for auxiliary power turbomachinery.
