YEOVIL MP David Laws has welcomed the announcement that AgustaWestland has secured an important contract to export helicopter equipment to South Korea.
The business will export to Korea eight new AW159 helicopters which are built at the company’s Yeovil factory.
Yeovil-based AgustaWestland won the contract, which is thought to be worth approximately £250m, following a competitive process against other international manufacturers.
