In recent years, AgustaWestland has enjoyed a flurry of new orders for AW101s in a VIP configuration, with two helicopters each for the governments of Saudi Arabia and Turkmenistan. The company is also currently building two aircraft for the Algerian government and delivering 12 for use by the Indian air force for VVIP missions. The aircraft is also being offered jointly by AgustaWestland and Northrop Grumman for the U.S. Navy’s VXX program to replace the “Marine One” helicopters that carry the president and other senior members of the U.S. government.
