AgustaWestland sales top $163M

AgustaWestland kicked off what is expected to be a bonanza of sales activity this week by announcing contracts for new helicopters worth an estimated $163 million, as well as additional orders worth at least $278 million that fulfill past contracts and distribution agreements.
Orders for the AW139 accounted for more than half of the new contracts’ total value, giving credence to AgustaWestland CEO Giuseppe Orsi’s claim that the twin-turbine helicopter has “significantly contributed to the success” of the company. He added that revenue from the sale of AW139s and aircraft deliveries have both increased in the past year. Orsi made the remarks at the opening of the new AW139 assembly line in Philadelphia last week.
