The AW139 has not been cleared for guided weapons let alone tested with any. I doubt an Exocet could fit on. Only helis I have seen with Exocet has been Qatar Sea King, Aeronavale Super Frelon and AS-332L/532 . In terms of armament I have seen on an AW139 has been the GPMG yes as in variants for the Irish Air Corps. The proposed complete military version the AW149, has not been developed yet (barring saw mock up in Paris Airshow 2001 )
