Airbus delivered the first H135 helicopter to the Royal Canadian Air Force on 17 June 2026 for the Future Aircrew Training program. The CT-153 Juno, equipped with Helionix avionics, will train RCAF rotary-wing pilots in basic ab-initio, advanced IFR, and tactical missions. SkyAlyne, the FAcT prime contractor, selected the H135 to meet evolving training requirements, marking a milestone after 18 months of work. This delivery transitions the program from contracting and customization into fleet delivery and integration for Canadian military pilot training. Remaining aircraft deliveries will continue through 2028, solidifying the H135’s role in modernizing RCAF helicopter crew readiness.
