AW101 Merlin (Navy version) (3)

The port side view lets us look at the port set tail rotor and how the landing gear differs from the earlier Merlin, the first Merlin was a land based type and had 6 wheels (2 nose and 2 per side) while this Navy Merlin has 4 wheels (2 nose and 1 per side).

We also see the port side area for 2 hardpoints for Sting ray Torpedoes or Depth Charges, another are with 2 hardpoints can be found on the starboard side.

Note that just like on the starboard side there is a British roundel and writing that reads Royal Navy on the port side.
