Airbus Group Australia Pacific has delivered its first H145 helicopter to this part of the world.
The New Zealand-based customer who accepted delivery of the H145 was replacing its earlier model EC145, Airbus Group Australia Pacific said.
Airbus Group Australia Pacific, previously known as EADS Australia Pacific before the company rebranded in 2014, represents the Airbus Group, Airbus Helicopters and Airbus Defence and Space in the region.
The company said the H145, which was certified in 2014, would be touring Australia and New Zealand during May and June 2015.
