Chasing the Polish requirement for up to 70 new multirole helicopters to replace aging Mil Mi-8/17s, Eurocopter announced that it will create an assembly line for the EC725 Caracel in that country. Turbomeca simultaneously announced that it will produce the helicopter’s Makila 2 turboshaft engines in Poland. The two companies have signed cooperation agreements with Wojskowe Zaklady Lotnicze No 1 (WZL-1), the Lodz-based joint stock company that overhauls Mil helicopters and their engines.
