Airbus Helicopters has been awarded a contract for 12 H225M multi-role helicopters by the Republic of Iraq. The contract was signed in Baghdad by the Minister of Defence of Iraq Mr Thabet al-Abbassi in the presence of the French Ambassador Patrick Durel. These helicopters will be operated by the Iraqi Army Aviation command replacing older Mi-17s for a wider range of missions: counter-terrorism, special operations, tactical troop transport, attack, ground fire support, MEDEVAC and combat search and rescue. Deliveries will start in 2025. Iraq already operates a fleet of Airbus helicopters from the H125, H135 and H145 families.

A #FunFriday post - how could we not share these pictures of two iconic aircraft?! This is the first of the second batch of NH90s for the Spanish Air Force snapped in flight while the Beluga was in Marignane, France to transport the H175 to China. #AirbusHelicopters #Airbus #NH90 #BelugaST #H175

Celebrating Vietnam Helicopter Corporation (VNH)’s major milestone - 75,000 flight hours with their Super Puma fleet! Their H225s have contributed 25,000 flight hours. “The Super Puma family has played a crucial role at VNH for more than 30 years, supporting continued offshore operations. We are proud to have a trusted partner in Airbus and continue to rely strongly on the fleet to fulfil the varied missions. This achievement clearly illustrates the aircraft’s reliability, versatility and performance, and we look forward to the fleet supporting our operations for many more years to come,” said Kieu Dang Hung, CEO of VNH. VNH became Vietnam’s very first helicopter operator in the energy industry when it began in 1986 with a Puma. The company is now one of the largest helicopter service providers in South East Asia, operating a fleet of H225s, AS332s, and H155s. VNH’s H225s are primarily deployed for air transportation in the offshore environment. The fleet also undertakes emergency medical service missions. #AirbusHelicopters #MakingMissionsPossible #Vietnam #H225

Did you know that the first single-engine helicopter to fly with instrument flight rules (IFR) capabilities took to the skies 50 years ago today? On August 27, 1974, a Sud-Aviation SA-341G Gazelle helicopter flew for the first time in Texas using IFR - a technology that enhances situational awareness when weather conditions are less than ideal, reducing the pilot's workload, increasing safety and enhancing efficiency. Fifty years later, and again in Texas, the world's best-selling single-engine helicopter, the H125, is being used to conduct IFR flight tests, with the aim of receiving certification before the end of the year. This new feature will expand the H125's all-weather mission capabilities, particularly for training operations, emergency medical services (EMS), law enforcement, border patrol, and private and business aviation (PBA) missions. #AirbusHelicopters #MakingMissionsPossible #H125
