Bell will build U.S. Navy variants of its 407GXi single in Ozark, Alabama, should it be selected for the service's Advanced Helicopter Trainer program, the company announced in April. The Navy is seeking to acquire 130 aircraft, and Bell submitted its proposal to the Navy on April 2. Bell's Ozark facility already delivers unmanned 407s to the Navy through the Fire Scout program. Bell is the legacy provider of training aircraft for the Navy with the TH57, a derivative of the Model 206. The 407 is currently assembled at Bell's Mirabel, Canada plant. Bell is competing in the trainer replacement competition with the Airbus Helicopters H135 and the Leonardo AW119KX.
