The Eurocopter EC725 Caracal, now called Airbus Helicopters H225M, is a long-range tactical transport military helicopter developed from the Eurocopter AS532 Cougar for military use. It is a twin-engined aircraft and can carry up to 28 seated troops along with two crew, depending on customer configuration. The helicopter is marketed for troop transport, casualty evacuation, and combat search and rescue duties, and is similar to the civilian EC225.
📑 ➖➖➖ In June 2015, Kuwait was negotiating to acquire up to 24 EC725s Caracals for the Kuwait Air Force (KAF). Eventually, the Kuwait Ministry of Defence and Airbus Helicopters signed a USD 1 billion-plus contract for 30 H225Ms in August 2016.
From this contract, 24 are destined for the Kuwait Air Force and six for the Kuwait National Guard. Three of the six Kuwait National Guard H225Ms have been seen so far at Marseille/Marignane. The KAF H225M flight test programme started on 17 October 2019. The first two helicopters commenced their ferry flights to Kuwait in the first weeks of February 2020. Subsequently, on 19 February 2020, it was announced that the Kuwait Ministry of Defence suspended accepting further H225M deliveries after the first two were delivered with unspecified engine problems. After some uproar by local members of Parliament, a special committee stood up to investigate the issue.
