Next February, an NH90 helicopter detachment will set sail for Mali.

These aircraft are currently involved in the Duster exercise that is taking place at Germany’s Fassberg Air Base.

In early March, the first detachment will start operating in Gao, northern Mali.

It will mainly transport the wounded from the combat zone to specialized emergency stations.

The Belgian detachment will cooperate with the Germans who are already active there.
