The single-engine EC 130 B4 is the latest edition of Eurocopter's Ecureuil (Squirrel) helicopter family of light multi-mission helicopters. The helicopter can seat six passengers and has a range of 640km and cruise speed of 235km/h.

The light single engine EC130 B4 benefits from the proven experience of the Ecureuil family. It integrates the most advanced technological innovations of Eurocopter’s latest generation helicopters: a new tailboom with the latest generation quiet Fenestron® shrouded tail rotor, a dual channel FADEC unit with a third independent channel for engine control, an automatic variable main rotor speed system to reduce external noise, and a dual hydraulic system from the AS355 N. It is fully equipped with a VFR day radio navigation system (standard “ready to fly” package) associated with an integrated instrument panel. All these innovations make the EC130 B4 the safest and the most high-tech aircraft in its category.
