Avincis has widened its fleet renewal programme with an order for 15 Leonardo helicopters, split between 10 AW169s and five AW139s, with deliveries scheduled from 2028 to 2031. The deal follows its separate commitment for 15 Airbus H145s, taking the company’s new-aircraft pipeline to 30 helicopters across two OEMs.
Three of the AW169s are earmarked for Sweden, where Avincis has secured a joint HEMS contract from Region Uppsala and Västra Götalandsregionen. Avincis says the combined procurement supports long-term growth, while Leonardo is positioning the AW169 and AW139 against rising demand for larger cabin volumes, higher mission flexibility and stronger performance in emergency medical services.
The order gives Avincis a cleaner path for capacity growth through the end of the decade.
