A total of 18 NH90s have been ordered by Sweden to perform Tactical Troop Transport, Anti- Submarine Warfare and Search and Rescue missions.

“We are very honoured to attend to this important event in Sweden, standing side by side with our customer. The Swedish NH90 is the result of a true partnership with local industry since its versatile mission system has been designed and built by SAAB in order to comply with the stringent requirements of the Swedish Armed Forces” declared Julien Negrel Business Manager of NHIndustries.

The two Rolls-Royce/Turbomeca RTM322 modern engines provide power reserve in all environments. The NH90 helicopter has provision for a number of role equipment to enable mission flexibility and effectiveness coupled with a high level of safety and survivability.
