The Airbus H175 super-medium-twin helicopter has received certification from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), clearing the way for delivery of four of the aircraft in the country later this year. The H175 received its nod from EASA in 2014 and the current in-service fleet of 53 in 13 countries has amassed 185,000 flight hours on missions including offshore energy, search and rescue, public services, and private and business aviation.

A pair of 1,776-shp Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6-67Es power the H175, which features the Helionix avionics system with four-axis autopilot. The helicopter has seating for up to 18 (utility configuration), a cruise speed of 150 knots, and a range up to 590 nm, depending on load.
