Heli-One and VINCORION intend to partner to bring next-generation Electrical Rescue Hoist (ERH) to civil and military helicopter market
Heli-One (Norway) AS and VINCORION Advanced Systems GmbH have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to jointly support the market introduction, certification, integration, and lifecycle support of VINCORION’s next-generation Electrical Rescue Hoist ERH premierV system across multiple helicopter types.
VINCORION has been designing and constructing safe and reliable hoist systems for civil and military helicopter operations for more than 40 years. Its new ERH premierV system is designed to lift 303kgs at a speed of 2 meters a second, at distances of 330 feet. It also features a wireless remote-control capability, providing flexibility of use and making it ideal for complex rescue missions and safety critical operations in challenging onshore and offshore environments.
Working together, Heli-One and VINCORION aim to reduce technical and operational barriers for operators introducing the ERH premierV system into their fleets. The companies will focus on defining Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) pathways, enabling integration of the ERH premierV system across multiple helicopter platforms and offering high performance, enhanced safety, and long-term operational availability to civil and military operators globally.
The ERH premierV’s design is intended to support high operational readiness through extended maintenance intervals and reduced lifecycle burden – with Heli-One providing Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul support at its Norwegian facility.
Heli-One is a leading independent helicopter MRO with certifications and expertise in a broad range of airframes and components from major helicopter and engine manufacturers, including Leonardo, Airbus, Sikorsky, Bell, Safran Helicopter Engines, Pratt & Whitney Canada and General Electric.
‘This collaboration reflects Heli-One’s role as an integrator and lifecycle support provider for mission critical helicopter systems,’ said Jens Morten Mørland, Sales Director at Heli-One. ‘Together with VINCORION, we see strong market potential in offering operators a complete package — from certification and installation to long-term MRO solutions — enabling efficient introduction and sustained operation of the hoist system across international markets.’
‘For the market introduction of the ERH premierV, our objective is to offer customers flexible integration options and high availability throughout the products lifecycle,’ said Simon Böttcher, Director Segment Aviation at VINCORION. ‘By combining VINCORION’s innovative hoist design and production competencies with Heli‑One’s certification and MRO capabilities, we are creating a competitive European rescue hoist solution that addresses customer needs for performance, safety and reliable long‑term support.’
‘From a product perspective, the ERH premierV shows a high level of architectural maturity,’ said Ole Kyrre Brænd, Head of Design at Heli‑One Norway AS. ‘Its safety features, modular design and performance characteristics give us a solid foundation for efficient integration across different platform configurations meeting the latest certification requirements’.
