The AW159 is a twin-engine, multirole maritime and utility aircraft that was developed as a replacement for the Lynx family of helicopters. Designated ‘Wildcat’ by the UK MoD, the AW159 was chosen by the British Army and RN to meet maritime combatant and land utility and reconnaissance requirements. Leonardo has since secured export sales to the Philippines and South

Korea.
