What does the future of crewed-uncrewed teaming look like in action? We’re looking back at our pioneering demonstration in Singapore, where the Airbus Flexrotor uncrewed aerial system (UAS) teamed with a Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) H225M using our HTeaming system. Through a specialised data-link architecture, the HTeaming solution enabled the RSAF’s helicopter crew to securely receive and process real-time data from the Flexrotor UAS. During a simulated search and rescue mission, the crew successfully took direct command and control of the UAS, gathering real-time data, extending their visual range, and enhancing mission safety. Defence Science & Technology Agency (DSTA) Programme Manager Lim Jiaxu calls it a "game changer for more dynamic operations," noting that it significantly enhances mission effectiveness. By integrating real-time data directly into the cockpit, we are ensuring our pilots can act faster when every second counts.

The Czech Ministry of Interior and Airbus Helicopters have signed a contract for 11 five-bladed H145 helicopters, marking a significant milestone in the modernisation of the Czech Republic’s public safety infrastructure. These state-of-the-art multi-role aircraft will be operated by the Czech Police Aviation Service, serving as the backbone of its fleet for law enforcement, search and rescue, and emergency medical missions. The comprehensive agreement encompasses not only the delivery of the helicopters but also an extensive training and logistics package to ensure seamless operational integration. The Czech Police Aviation Service is a long-standing operator of Airbus products, currently utilising a fleet that includes nine H135 family helicopters. This fleet will be replaced by the five-bladed H145, which will significantly enhance their tactical range and lifting capacity while streamlining maintenance through advanced digital systems.

What does it take to provide life-saving care in the air? At Rotortech 2026 on the Gold Coast of Australia, we caught up with Airbus Helicopters HEMS promoter Eoin Walker for an inside look at the H160's state-of-the-art medical cabin! From 360° access to the patient to its unique low-vibration and stable attitude, the Airbus H160 is built to support crews operating at crucial moments, when lives are at stake. #AirbusHelicopters #H160

Today is Day 145 of the year, which means it’s #H145Day! With over eight million flight hours accumulated globally, the Airbus H145 is trusted by civil and military customers worldwide thanks to its operational versatility. From essential offshore wind operations and high-stakes law enforcement to rescue and firefighting missions, not to mention light attack and special operations, the H145 is a key enabler. The latest version, featuring a five-bladed rotor system, takes its capabilities even further. We would like to extend our sincere thanks to our global community of operators, pilots, and technicians. Your trust and dedication has made the H145 the success it is today. #AirbusHelicopters #H145

Successful multi-domain operations require real-time data sharing between air and sea assets to access critical information from areas far beyond a ship's own sensor range. Airbus Helicopters and the Spanish Navy recently completed tactical flight trials in Rota to validate this multi-domain connectivity. The exercise integrated the offshore patrol vessel Rayo with an H135 helicopter and two uncrewed aerial systems, the Airbus Flexrotor and Alpha Unmanned Systems´ A900. By using the HTeaming tablet, a pilot aboard the H135 managed the drones to track a high-speed target and transmit live footage directly to the ship’s combat station. This collaboration between Airbus, Navantia, and Alpha Unmanned Systems demonstrates a commitment to providing European defence technology that extends sensor ranges and enhances situational awareness for naval forces.

The first #AirbusDefenceSummit has begun! Take a look behind the scenes with us and discover how Airbus will shape the future of European sovereignty in defence. https://lnkd.in/dcy_nmBx

Happy #H140Day! Today is the 140th day of the year, and we are celebrating the incredible journey of our latest next- generation helicopter. Following successful hot & high testing in Spain and France last summer, and a cold and snow campaign in Finland and Sweden, our teams are now gearing up for the upcoming hot and high campaign in the USA. The excitement is growing both in the air and on the ground, as industrial activities for the first H140 helicopters destined for customers have officially begun on the shop floor. Thank you to our amazing teams for making the future of flight a reality every day! #AirbusHelicopters #H140 #MakingMissionsPossible

In an era of intensifying global threats and climate-related disasters, the role of rotorcraft is evolving. Mathilde Royer, Executive Vice President Strategy and Sustainability at Airbus Helicopters, discusses our vision for the "new normal." We are moving beyond individual platforms toward integrated, multi-domain ecosystems. By maturing critical technologies like modular open systems and advanced connectivity, Airbus is spearheading next-generation solutions to ensure European strategic autonomy. From the multi-mission H145M to the command of uncrewed aerial systems (UAS), we are ensuring the future of European defence.
