Finmeccanica is a world leader in the helicopter market, where it operates through AgustaWestland. The Group offers a complete range of helicopters able to meet both civilian and military customers' most demanding requirements.
AgustaWestland has the technologies needed to manage all phases of helicopter construction. These range from preliminary analysis and definition of operating requirements to the design, development and production of transmissions, blades, structures in metal and composite materials and the avionics systems and equipment. It concludes with the integration of all of these components into the complete "helicopter system".
In Paris, AgustaWestland is displaying its most competitive models.

helicopters, ideal for carrying out various types of mission such as Search & Rescue, VIP and offshore transport;
- AW101, also available in VIP configuration, is a benchmark in the medium/heavy helicopter segment. It offers the best performance as well as the largest and most comfortable cabin in the category.
- The Grand, which blends competitive costs with performance and dimensions previously reserved for larger helicopters;
- AW159, a new version of the Lynx offering even better performance and more benefits;
