Hungary receives its first two H145Ms:

26 November 2019: Hungarian Defence Forces have received the first two of twenty H145M military helicopters.

The H145Ms of the Hungarian fleet have the fast roping system, high-performance camera, dual cargo hook, hoist, disaster management kit, ballistic protection as well as an electronic countermeasures system to support the most demanding operational requirements.

They are also equipped with the HForce weapon management system, developed by Airbus Helicopters, which permits Hungary to equip and operate their aircraft with a large set of ballistic or guided air-to-ground and air-to-air weapons.

Hungary has also ordered 16 H225M multi-purpose helicopters equipped with HForce. The cost-efficient H145M / H225M tandem will allow the Hungarian Defence Forces to cover missions from light utility, tactical transport, combat search and rescue up to light attack.
