NHIndustries-a French firm owned by Airbus Helicopters, Leonardo
Helicopters and Dutch aircraft manufacturer Fokker-has signed a
contract to upgrade the NH90 Tactical Troop Helicopter for the
French special forces, the three companies said Monday in a joint
statement.
The contract was signed with the NATO Helicopter Management
Agency, they said.
"Under the terms of the production contract, the final batch of
10 NH90s already ordered by the French Ministry of Armed Forces,
through the Armament General Directorate, will be delivered
directly to this new standard at the beginning of 2025," they
said.
The new standard will improve the helicopter's capability in
conditions of poor visibility, they said.
