Leonardo AW189 helicopter

The Leonardo AW189 is a super-medium twin-engine helicopter designed for offshore support, search and rescue (SAR), and executive transport. Its origin traces back to AgustaWestland, a joint venture between Italy's Finmeccanica and the UK's GKN, which eventually consolidated into the Italian aerospace giant Leonardo S.p.A.

The aircraft shown features the livery of CHC Helicopter (specifically its Norwegian subsidiary CHC Helikopter Service), a global helicopter service provider. While the brand Leonardo is Italian and the headquarters are in Rome, the helicopter model itself is primarily manufactured at Leonardo's facility in Vergiate, Italy. Ownership of the brand rests with the publicly traded Italian multinational Leonardo S.p.A., which is partially owned by the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance.
