Bell Delivers Seven 429s To The Swedish National Police

Aircraft Flying SAR Missions, Including Mountain Rescue, Across Sweden

The Swedish National Police has taken delivery of seven Bell 429 helicopters for use in law enforcement and search and rescue, including mountain rescue, across Sweden.

“This is now the largest Bell 429 fleet in operation in the European Union,” said Jakub Hoda, Bell Helicopter Managing Director for Europe and Russia. “Customers in Europe have shown great interest in the Bell 429 for law enforcement  [and search and rescue] operation. Over a quarter of the Bell 429s in service across Europe today are flying parapublic missions, demonstrating the superior performance of the Bell 429.”
 
The Bell 429 continues to gain customers in police forces around the world. Bell Helicopter has recently delivered 15 Bell 429s to the Turkish National Police, four Bell 429s to the New York Police Department, and the first of two Bell 429s to the Slovakian Police.
 
The Bell 429 includes a fully-integrated glass cockpit, advanced drive system, WAAS navigation and IFR capability.
