Airbus Helicopters’ Post

The helicopter market is a lucrative industry that has seen significant growth in recent years. With a wide range of applications, from military operations to search and rescue missions, helicopters have become an essential tool for many organizations around the world. Two major players in this market, Airbus and Boeing, have taken different approaches to expanding their share of the market.

The Ministry of Defence of North Macedonia has announced its decision to acquire helicopters from the Italian company Leonardo. This decision is part of the country's broader program to upgrade its armed forces. The deal reportedly includes four AW169 and four AW149 helicopters. Currently, the project has moved to the stage of forming a team responsible for conducting the necessary technical negotiations and finalizing the contract. Leonardo’s bid was chosen over three other European and American contenders, including the H145M and H222M offered by Airbus and the Bell 412M and Lockheed Martin S-70 Black Hawk. The selection was based on various factors, including the helicopters’ overall capabilities, pricing, and their logistics and maintenance systems.

The iconic Hawker Hunter, developed in the early 1950s and entering service in 1954, marked a significant shift in British aviation history, replacing predecessors like the Meteor and Venom. This legendary aircraft spread its wings worldwide, being acquired by 70 countries. Surprisingly, it continued to soar through the skies, serving in the Swiss and Indian air forces until the 1990s. A captivating snapshot of this historical aircraft was captured at RAF Khormaksar, Aden, in 1964. #military #defense #defence #aerospace #aviation #aircraft #aircrafts #airplane #airplanes #aviationlovers #militaryaviation #militaryaircraft #fighterjet #engineering #technology #militarytechnology #defensetechnology #defenseinnovation #defenseindustry #airforce #pilots
