Bell Textron Inc. has been awarded a purchase agreement for two SUBARU Bell 412EPX helicopters by the Republic of Croatia’s Ministry of Interior. This marks a significant milestone in the region for Bell as the Croatian government order is the first purchase agreement for SUBARU Bell 412 EPXs in the continent of Europe. The expected delivery date of the aircraft is scheduled for October 2023.
The Bell 412EPX helicopter benefits from a robust main rotor gearbox dry run capability and increased mast torque output at speeds below 60 knots. These capabilities of the helicopter provide the operators with the ability to transport more supplies and perform operations more efficiently.
