Earlier this afternoon, an Aeronautica Militare Agusta-Westland HH-139A ‘MM81798’ landed in Malta. The aircraft will stay in LMML for a number of days, whereby it will perform a series of exercise with the Armed Forces of Malta in order to learn from each other and strengthen the ties between both air arms.
