Agusta A 129 Mangusta

09/30/2007. Remarks by Johan Visschedijk: "This Mangusta (Mongoose) is the IMS-prototype, the IMS (integrated management system) provides an interface for the helicopter systems, mission avionics and armaments, that is presented on multifunction displays in both cockpits. The IMS also provides monitoring, fault isolation, maintenance data recording and self-diagnostics to allow quick and easy corrective action to be taken by maintenance personnel. Later the helicopter received military markings and the code E.I.904."
