Austrian Multi Role Helicopter requirement, Airbus left out

Last nights legislative election here in Austria sees Sebastian Kurz of the OVP tipped to be the new chancellor thus becoming the youngest ..leader around.


Anyhow there is a requirement here for 12 x multi role helos however Airbus feels a tad left out of the bidding process because of the ongoing dispute about Eurofighter procurement.

Austria?s rift with Airbus hampers helicopter acquisition | Jane's 360

Leonardo have offered the AW109M Trekker
Bell is offering the 429 MRH
Airbus supposedly offering the H135M and H145M

Any thoguhts?

cheers
