AgustaWestland Expands Presence In West Africa

Future Plans Include A Regional Service Center

AgustaWestland has announced four new orders for the AW139 in West Africa, with four undisclosed government customers recently choosing the best-selling intermediate helicopter for passenger transport roles.

The AW139 confirms his versatility as the intermediate choice for such a mission thanks to undisputed comfort and performance. Many heads of state and of government have chosen it expressly because of these features.

These orders mark the continuing growth of AgustaWestland helicopters in the region, whose growing fleet will be soon supported by a brand new Authorized Service Center. This approach will soon bring AgustaWestland services even closer to the numerous customers who will benefit from its maintenance and spare facilities.

To date, orders for almost 840 AW139 helicopters have been placed by over 220 customers from almost 70 countries to carry out a wide range of missions including offshore transport, law enforcement and homeland security duties, EMS/SAR, utility, firefighting, executive/private transport, and other government roles.
