摘要

A contract was signed on Sept 18 between Eu-rocopter and the Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF) for the supply of four EC725 helicopters, configured for search and rescue missions. Signing the new agreement were Air Marshal Paiboon Singhamat of the RTAF, and Olivier Lambert, Eurocopter's Senior Vice President for Sales and Customer Relations. "This latest endorsement underscores the role of our EC725/EC225 family as the helicopters of reference in Asia for search & rescue," Lambert said. "It also marks a new step in Eurocopter's expansion of its ties with Thailand as the country moves ahead with modernisation programmes for its helicopter fleets." Deliveries of the EC725 will be in 2015.
