AgustaWestland & Tata Form a JV for Final Assembly of AW-119 Helicopters in India
The Italian based AgustaWestland and Tata have signed a Shareholders’ Agreement for the formation of an Indian joint venture (JV) company for the launch of a final assembly line for the AW-119 helicopters. The joint venture (JV) company will be responsible for final assembly, completion and delivery of AW-119 helicopters.
The first AW-119 helicopter is scheduled to be delivered by this joint venture in 2011 with estimates to raise the production to 30 AW-119 helicopters per year to meet worldwide demand. The new (JV) company is to become a supplier for Indian Army’s Reconnaissance and Surveillance Helicopter (RSH) program, if AgustaWestland wins the bid, for which the locally manufactured AW-119 was proposed.
