The new MTOM of 2.360 kg represents a 2,5% increase from the previous limit. This enhancement allows for greater payload capacity, enabling operators to carry more fuel or equipment, thereby improving operational efficiency and profitability.
Key Benefits of the Increased MTOM:
- Enhanced Payload Capacity: The increased MTOM allows for additional mission equipment, providing operators with greater flexibility and revenue potential.
- Improved Fuel Efficiency: Despite the higher takeoff mass, the DA62 MPP maintains its industry-leading fuel efficiency, ensuring cost-effective operations.
- Extended Range: The aircraft can now operate on longer missions without compromising on performance. The 60 kg of additional payload are equivalent to one hour of additional endurance.
- Compliance with Safety Standards: The increase in MTOM has been rigorously tested and certified by relevant aviation authorities, ensuring the highest standards of safety and reliability.
"We are thrilled to offer our customers an aircraft that not only meets but exceeds their operational needs," said Mario Spiegel, Head of Sales Diamond Special Mission Aircraft Division. "The increased MTOM of the DA62 MPP is a testament to our commitment to innovation and excellence in aviation."
The DA62 MPP is a versatile airborne platform that builds on the competitive advantages of Diamond Aircraft’s renowned DA62 model. These advantages include simple aircraft handling and Diamond’s unmatched safety record; Jet-A fueled diesel engines that ensure the lowest operating costs by class; a low noise and IR signature due to the engines’ on-top exhaust system; superb aerodynamics and immunity to corrosion provided by the aircraft’s all-composite structure; and much more.
The DA62 MPP with the new MTOM is now available for order, with deliveries to begin January 2025.
