Ukraine has purchased 50 Airbus helicopters.

“We will receive 50 modern French-made Airbus Helicopters”, said the Interior Minister, Denys Monastyrsky. According to Monastrysky, the equipment will ensure the implementation of two important projects: The Single Aeromedical Space, and the European Fire Safety Hub. Aeromedical Space will allow Ukraine to be covered with helicopter bases for air evacuation and transportation of donor biomaterials. Situation Monitoring Center will analyze satellite thermal images and assist in firefighting.
