UK police air service begins helicopter fleet overhaul
April 27, 2026
Initial H135 T3Hs have entered training and modification phases as part of a seven-helicopter programme to replace ageing aircraft and introduce upgraded capability across the NPAS fleet.
The aircraft NPAS currently operates are some of the oldest and most-flown aircraft of their type in any UK fleet. The service should take delivery of the first of its order in 2027.
