It's flown by the militaries of three countries and by law enforcement and security organizations in eleven others. The Super Puma is also a utility helicopter flown around the world.

Airbus Helicopters said that during the exhibition in Chile, the Ministry of Security of Buenos Aires Province in Argentina ordered a AS350 B3 light helicopter for surveillance and rescue operations, while a private Peruvian organization ordered two EC145s and one EC155 B1 to be used in the country's energy sector.

The sales "confirm our helicopter product line continues to meet the demanding operational requirements in this region of the world, which results from the capabilities of Airbus Helicopters' current rotorcraft families and the constant evolution of our product line," said Alexandre Ceccacci, the chief executive officer of Airbus Helicopters Cono Sur.
