The Ministry of Defence of Brunei Darussalam announced the contract award for the Royal Brunei Armed Forces (RBAF) support helicopter project to Sikorsky International Operations, Inc, US.

The project is for the supply of 12 Blackhawk S-70i helicopters to replace the current fleet of Bell 212 and BO105 helicopters and to enhance the RBAF’s rotary wing capacity to meet the requirement for a single wave tactical air lift. The delivery of these advanced new aircrafts will also allow the RBAF to further strengthen its troop deployment capabilities in military and humanitarian operations to fulfill its national and international obligation.

The helicopters are to be delivered in Brunei Darussalam between 2013 and 2015.
