At the beginning of this year, the Portland, Ore. enhanced-vision system (EVS) manufacturer had fielded more than 250 infrared imaging systems in fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft. In all, EVS-1000 installations are certified on the Sikorsky S-76A, B, C and C+; the Eurocopter EC 135 series, EC 145 and AS 355; BK 117; Agusta A109 Power; and Bell AH-1 Cobra (for the U.S. Forest Service).
