Makila turboshaft engines power heavy helicopters such as the Eurocopter twin-engine Super Puma, Cougar and EC725/225, and the Rooivalk attack helicopter by Denel Aviation.
Designed by Turbomeca (Safran group), the Makila is a 1,700-shp class engine (1,300 kW), with growth potential to 2,400 shp (1,800 kW). It is offered in five versions, with the latest providing 14% more power, and maximum takeoff power of 2,100 shp (1,567 kW). The Makila has earned a reputation with operators as a safe, reliable powerplant, particularly under difficult conditions such as offshore platforms in the North Sea, or for military missions.
