Can somebody tell me how successful the operation of AW139 will reduce militant attack on helicopter operation in Niger Delta, Nigeria

[gulliBell]

Why? did they mount 0.50cal mini-guns on them or something to suppress militant action?

The first AW139 arrived is a "civilian" aircraft for the state governor.
Some more are on the way and will be used by Oil companies.

I think you get some wrong informations, those aircraft don't have anything to do with the militant attack

Maye they will be doing the same mods that the Irish Air Corps had done...........

We live in hope.

Hit and miss

... they will reduce the risk of being shot at simply because ... well, revueing the last five shifts, the thing is usually collecting dust in the hangar while mechanics run in circles talking hilly billy, supplied answer in Italiano Americano and I am napping in the apartment ... works for me.

Hookipa, I resent the implication that I talk hilly billy The ONLY thing stopping it from flying more is the Nigerian CAA
