AgustaWestland
North America, a Finmeccanica company, will showcase the light-single
AW119Kx helicopter on the joint Finmeccanica North America booth (#1923)
at the Navy League Sea-Air-Space Exposition, taking place from April
7 through 9 at the Gaylord National Harbor Convention Center. |
“The AW119Kx, with its digital glass cockpit, allows for the next
generation of military aviators to be trained on a helicopter with next
generation technologies widely used by our commercial operators,”
said Robert LaBelle, CEO of AgustaWestland North America. “By
bringing these modern and mission-tested platforms to the military market,
we’re able to provide capable and operationally successful helicopters
to our government customers while reducing cost and risk.”
The superior performance and redundancy of critical systems
make single-engine AW119Kx ideal for initial helicopter training, providing
an exceptionally safe platform. The modern avionics of the AW119Kx maximize
situational awareness and significantly reduce pilot workload.
The AW119Kx is assembled at the company’s manufacturing facility
in Philadelphia and has been chosen or is in service conducting law
enforcement, homeland security, parapublic, firefighting, EMS, and corporate
transport missions around the world, including in the United States,
Canada, Chile, Australia, Mexico, Finland, South Africa, New Zealand,
Republic of Korea, and Brazil.
