The AW139 is a standard twin-engined transport helicopter with a five-blade entirely articulated major rotor and a 4-blade tail rotor and a retractable landing gear.
The AW139 is powered by two Pratt & Whitney PT6C turboshaft engines. The helicopter is being marketed for use in a quantity of roles such as Law Enforcement/Emergency Medical Service, Executive Transport, Search and Rescue, Maritime and Offshore Oil Operations.
The very first AW139 flew on 3 February 2001 at Vergiate in Italy, and the first production aircraft on 24 June 2002. The first client aircraft was delivered in 2003.
The company has orders for more than 430 helicopters of which more than 200 had been delivered by January 2009. It was a contender in the U.S. Army Light Utility Helicopter Plan (2004-2006), but lost to the Eurocopter EC145-based UH-72A Lakota.
In 2007 a second production line at the AgustaWestland Aerospace plant at Philadelphia, United States was established.
At the Farnborough Air Present in 2006, AgustaWestland announced the AW149 as a multi-role battlefield helicopter variant of the AW139.
The Irish Air Corps began taking delivery of its first AW139s in 2007. The sort will present army co-operation capability to the Air Corps. They replace the Aerospatiale Alouette III in service.
In late 2006 it was announced that the Japan Coast Guard had chosen the AW139 as the replacement for its fleet of Bell 212 helicopters. Twenty-4 AW139s are expected to be delivered, starting in 2008.
In June 2010, it was announced that Agusta and Rosvertol (Russian Helicopters) would build a plant in Tomilino, Moscow Region, jointly creating AW139s from late 2011.
