GD Helicopter Finance secures over €125 million credit to buy Airbus H175 and H160

GD Helicopter Finance obtained a credit facility of more than €125 million from German banks Helaba and BayernLB, with support from Bpifrance, to finance the purchase of several new Airbus H175 and H160 helicopters slated for delivery in 2026 and 2027.

The new line of credit builds on a previous financing of over €77 million secured in 2024 for additional H160 helicopters, and GDHF has already used the facility to acquire an H160 in September as part of its strategy to develop a multi‑mission helicopter portfolio for offshore, medical, rescue, government and corporate operations.
