The Westland Lynx is a British multi role helicopter that has seen service in both land based army forms as well as ship based naval variants. Entering service in 1977, the Lynx has since seen many upgrades and improvements throughout service history.

The Mk8 navel variant entered service with the Royal Navy in early 1990s and has since gone on to provide them with an execellent maritime attack helicopter, performing well in anti-submarine role, search and rescue situations and more recently, anti-piracy operations off the coast of Somalia.

Fiercely armed with either missiles, depth charges or a heavy machine gun the Lynx is a formidable machine and is more than capable of taking on the best of the world's surface vessels as well as any potential underwater threats.
