Airbus Helicopters H160 vs Airbus Helicopters H175 vs Airbus Helicopters H225 vs Bell 525 Relentless vs Leonardo Aw139 vs Leonardo Aw189 vs Sikorsky S 92

Airbus’s H160 is a medium twin aimed at efficient corporate and EMS missions, with a typical range around 450–500 nm and usually seating about 8–12 passengers depending on layout. The H175 steps up into the super‑medium class, optimized for offshore and SAR, offering roughly 500–600 nm of range and commonly 16–18 passengers. The H225 is a heavy twin for long offshore lifts and utility work, typically around 450–550 nm and often configured for about 19 passengers (higher in dense seating). Bell’s 525 Relentless is a modern super‑medium, positioned against the H175/AW189, with about 500–600 nm range and roughly 16–18 passengers. Leonardo’s AW139 is a proven medium twin with broadly similar range to the H160 (about 450–550 nm) and typically 12–15 passengers, while the AW189 is a larger super‑medium with roughly 500–600 nm and around 16–18 passengers. Sikorsky’s S‑92 is a heavy twin offshore workhorse, generally around 500–600 nm and typically 19 passengers, with robust mission equipment options for SAR and energy operations.
