Airbus Helicopters H225 vs Gulfstream G700 vs Leonardo Aw189 vs Robinson R66

The Airbus H225 and Leonardo AW189 are medium-to-super-medium twin‑engine helicopters aimed at offshore transport and utility missions. The H225 is the larger, typically carrying around 16–19 passengers with a range roughly in the 450–700 nautical mile class depending on configuration, making it well suited to longer overwater legs. The AW189 is slightly smaller, commonly configured for about 12–16 passengers, with range generally around 450–500+ nautical miles, strong for its class but usually less than an H225 in high-payload roles. The Robinson R66 is a light single‑engine helicopter primarily for personal, training, and light utility use, typically seating 4–5 passengers with a much shorter range, often around 300–350 nautical miles, and lower payload and all‑weather capability than the twins. The Gulfstream G700 is a long‑range business jet in a completely different category: it carries roughly 10–19 passengers in luxury configurations and offers intercontinental range on the order of about 7,000+ nautical miles, far exceeding any helicopter, with much higher cruise speed and altitude.
