Pakistan has Signed Order with Lenorado for AgustaWestland AW139 Twin Engine Helicopters

On the 28th of March, Leonardo announced that the Government of Pakistan has signed a new order for an undisclosed number of additional AgustaWestland AW139 intermediate twin engine helicopters. 


The aircraft will be used to perform utility, SAR (Search and Rescue) and EMS (Emergency Medical Service) operations across the nation. Deliveries are expected to start in early 2018. 
The contract is a further step towards the completion of fleet renewal programmes spread over several batches plus logistic support and training. This event is a major achievement for Leonardo expanding the already successful presence of the AW139 model in the country. 

A fast-growing fleet of AW139s is already in service in Pakistan, with several units operated by the Pakistan Government for relief and transport duties.
