The Ghana Air Force has taken delivery of a newly acquired Airbus H175 helicopter from France, marking a significant step in the ongoing modernisation and retooling of its operational fleet.
The acquisition forms part of a broader defence procurement programme approved by Parliament to enhance the operational capacity of the Ghana Armed Forces.
The state-of-the-art helicopter was ferried from Marignane, France and arrived in Accra Ghana on Thursday 5 March 2026 after the successful completion of all technical acceptance procedures with the manufacturer, Airbus Helicopters.
The delivery flight followed a carefully planned route through Spain and North-West Africa before continuing south along the West African Atlantic coast through several countries en route to Ghana.
