The civil helicopter segment, on the other hand, is being driven by development of new product platforms by almost all key global OEMs incorporating cutting-edge technologies delivering enhanced operating economics & performance features, foray into entirely new segments, like super-midsize, and significant potential replacement demand likely to originate from the global offshore oil & gas exploration sector.
