A Bangladesh Air Force delegation visited Italy in April. They will purchase 2 AW139 MSAR helicopters and 14 AW169M armed helicopters (to replace Bell 212).

Leonardo is getting most of the medium and light helicopter contracts from BD Armed Forces.

That's what I was thinking too. Usually, BDMilitary has been a pretty anti-India website. But if they are publishing such news, there can't be a smoke without fire.

Lets see how it goes.

For Leonardo, I reckon it will be the ASW Helos. Didn't read up anything on the light helicopter contract, unless I haven't kept myself updated over the past weeks.

I've said that the right chopper for Bangladesh is the Rudra, not LCH.

Source is BDMilitary, so I could still be right.

LCH has not bagged any export orders, just the 200 odd from Indian Army and Airforce combined.

Yes, probably in response to that.
