Leonardo ramps up AW149 push for Puma replacement

By Dominic Perry2021-06-03T07:14:00+01:00 Leonardo Helicopters has underscored the credentials of its 8.6t AW149 super-medium-twin as a replacement for the UK Royal Air Force’s Puma HC2 transports, particularly compared with rival “paper aircraft”. The Ministry of Defence (MoD) in a March planning document revealed that it intends to retire the RAF’s 23 remaining Pumas by the middle of this decade, replacing them with what it calls the New Medium Helicopter (NMH).
