Japan’s largest Super Puma operator, Japan Coast Guard (JCG), has placed a new order for two H225 helicopters. This follow-on order brings JCG’s Super Puma fleet to 15, comprising two AS332s and 13 H225s. The new helicopters will be utilized for territorial coastal activities, security enforcement, as well as disaster relief missions in Japan.
The JCG’s H225s are covered by Airbus’ HCare Smart full-by-the-hour material support. This customized fleet availability program allows JCG to focus on its flight operations whilst Airbus manages its assets.
