LEONARDO: PAKISTAN CHOOSES AGAIN THE AW139 FOR ITS TRANSPORT AND EMS REQUIREMENTS
AW139 confirmed as a preferred choice for military and government customers around the world
Bestselling helicopter with over 960 units sold to more than 240 customers in more than 70 nations and over 830 units in service to date
Leonardo-Finmeccanica announced today that the Government of Pakistan has signed a contract for an undisclosed number of AW139 intermediate twin engine helicopters to be used for transport and EMS missions.
This event sets a major milestone for Leonardo and further expands the already successful presence of the AW139 and other models in the Country.
Note to editors on the AW139 helicopter
Pakistan is one of several nations who have chosen or are already operating the AW139 for a range of government roles including Italy, Ireland, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Thailand to name a few.
The new generation AW139 sets new standards in the market with advanced technology and class leading performance, reliability, safety, versatility and cabin space. The aircraft has outstanding one engine inoperative capabilities, even in hot and high operating conditions, making it ideally suited to operate in harsh high temperature and high altitude environments. The advanced integrated cockpit minimises pilot workload, allowing the crew to concentrate on mission objectives. Almost 240 customers from over 70 countries have ordered over 960 AW139 helicopters making it the best-selling helicopter in its class. The AW139 can perform a wide range of roles including government missions, EMS, SAR, executive/private and government transport, law enforcement, utility and offshore transport. Over 830 AW139s are in service worldwide.
