Airbus Helicopters reported a 4% increase in deliveries last year, releasing 361 aircraft to customers. This marks its strongest industrial performance since 2017 as the world’s leading commercial helicopter supplier continues recovering from the pandemic's effects.
The rotary-wing division of Airbus secured 455 gross orders, resulting in 450 net orders after cancellations. This represents a 15% year-on-year increase and is the highest net order total since 2012, reflecting rising global demand for its advanced helicopters.
Airbus captured 57% of the civil and parapublic market in 2024, which includes essential services such as emergency medical transport and public safety operations. Notable achievements included 58 orders for its large Super Puma helicopter, a reliable choice for demanding missions.
These results highlight Airbus Helicopters' steady recovery and growing dominance in critical markets. The company plans to release its full financial results, including profit figures for the helicopter division, on February 20.
By capitalizing on increasing demand for rotary-wing aircraft across various sectors, Airbus Helicopters has demonstrated resilience and sustained growth, strengthening its position as a global leader in the industry.
