First introduced in 2012, it represents a modernized evolution of the AS365/AS365N3 Dauphin family, offering enhanced capabilities, improved avionics, and greater operational flexibility. The H175 features a spacious cabin accommodating 12-19 passengers depending on configuration, making it suitable for diverse missions including offshore transport, search and rescue, emergency medical services, and law enforcement. Its twin-engine redundancy provides superior safety margins and all-weather capability. The helicopter is equipped with modern glass cockpit avionics, advanced flight management systems, and can be configured with specialized equipment for various roles. The H175 is operated by civilian operators, government agencies, and military forces worldwide. Key advantages include reliable Turbomeca engines, excellent hot-and-high performance, low operating costs compared to similar-class helicopters, and strong manufacturer support through Airbus.
