LATEST ROSHEN'S SAND IN THE EYES OF THE WORLD: Poroshenko says about need of helicopters of Airbus Helicopters for Ukrainian Armed Forces

Picking side in respect to Russian aggression on Ukraine more and more a nonsense...seems to me that Ukrainians gave in already(they have ZERO will to move things forward in their direction - why to give credit to something so hilarious and self destructive)....

Why don't you guys just call yourself Russia if unwilling to defend your country !!?????

I WARN WORLD INTO NOT BUYING UKRAINIAN SCAM KNOWN AS WAR FOR FREEDOM.

@thank you very much for much needed helicopters from Putan Putanowich personally. He will use them...

Here is what Ukraine urgently needs:

#1) Air defence

#2) Anti Tank equipment

#3) Gripen and not French helicopters

Then high quality precision guns(snipers etc.) and then tanks and so on...

From economics.unian.info:

Following the Intergovernmental Agreement signed between France and Ukraine on June 8, Airbus Helicopters has signed a contract with the Ukrainian Ministry of Interior for the purchase of 55 civil helicopters destined for search and rescue (SAR), public services, and emergency medical service (EMS) missions in the country. 


The 55 aircraft include 21 repurposed H225s, and 10 brand new H145s and 24 H125. The contract, which also foresees the setting up of a local training and maintenance centre, was signed in Kyiv on July 14 in the presence of Arsen Avakov, Minister of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Ukraine, and Bruno Even, Airbus Helicopters CEO, Airbus wrote.

The heavy twin-engine H225 aircraft ordered by Ukraine, for which the French State currently holds economic rights, will be repurposed to suit public services and search & rescue missions for which the aircraft is recognised as a reference helicopter. The H225 features include a takeoff sequence of less than five minutes, an extra long-range capability with auxiliary fuel tanks, and its world-renowned autopilot and upper SAR modes. The first H225 helicopters are expected to land in Kyiv before the end of 2018.

A world leader in the EMS segment and parapublic missions, the Airbus H145 is the latest member of its 4-tonne-class twin-engine rotorcraft product range – with designed-in mission capability and flexibility, especially in high and hot operating conditions. Compact in size, this helicopter's small footprint and large, flexible cabin make it the aircraft of choice for a variety of civil missions.

The H125, an Airbus bestseller, is a light single-engine helicopter that has earned its reputation as a true multi-mission workhorse thanks to its high levels of performance, exceptional manoeuvrability, excellent visibility and low vibration levels in the cabin, with an optimized maintenance plan that contributes to reduced operating costs for the customer. The aircraft, with its new flat floor can be quickly and easily reconfigured for various missions, including aerial work, firefighting, law enforcement, search and rescue, and passenger transport.
