Avincis has ordered up to 30 helicopters from Airbus Helicopters and Leonardo to renew and expand its fleet for emergency aerial services. The package covers 15 Airbus H145s and 15 Leonardo aircraft split between five AW139s and ten AW169s, with deliveries due from 2028 to 2031.
The operator says the aircraft will support existing customers and long-term growth across missions including HEMS, air ambulance, search and rescue, firefighting, offshore transport and medevac. The order also reinforces Avincis’ position as Europe’s largest emergency aerial services operator, with additional capacity geared to multi-year deployment planning.
For Airbus and Leonardo, the deal extends twin-engine helicopter demand into the next decade and adds another layer of visibility to production and backlog planning.
