Vietnam Helicopter Corporation (VNH), through its subsidiaries Southern Vietnam Helicopter Company and Northern Vietnam Helicopter Company, has placed an order for three Airbus H225 helicopters. The acquisition supports the continued expansion of its offshore energy operations while enabling the gradual replacement of ageing aircraft within its fleet.
According to VNH leadership, the H225 has consistently demonstrated strong performance across offshore missions, delivering the reliability, safety and operational flexibility required. The aircraft is expected to play a central role in the operator’s future fleet, supporting both capacity growth and enhanced mission versatility.
Once delivered, the new helicopters will complement VNH’s existing Airbus fleet, which includes Super Puma and H155 models. They will be deployed across a range of operations, including offshore energy transport, utility services, search and rescue, and general transport missions.
As the latest evolution of the Super Puma family, the H225 is recognised for its capability in demanding environments, offering significant range and payload advantages. Its advanced avionics and autopilot systems further enhance operational safety while reducing pilot workload, making it well suited to complex offshore operations.
