Αγορά των μεταφορικών ελικοπτέρων ΝΗ-90 και των επιθετικών ελικοπτέρων Apache στην ΕΛΛΑΔΑ του ΣΗΜΙΤΙΣΤΑΝ.
Οι Ινδοί ακύρωσαν αντίστοιχη παραγγελία, όταν ανακάλυψαν μίζες σε κυβερνητικούς αξιωματούχους!
Η συμμορία του Σημίτη τα αγόρασε νύχτα με απ’ ευθείας ανάθεση πληρώνοντας μάλιστα εκατομμύρια με δάνειο – φάντασμα από την Deutsche Bank! (Με Swap – φάντασμα της Deutsche Bank πλήρωσαν τα Apache Σημίτης – Παπαντωνίου!)
Ενώ θα έπρεπε να πληρώσει την πρώτη δόση το 2007!
The AgustaWestland AH Mk 1 Apache is a licence-built version of the AH-64D Apache Longbowattack helicopter for the British Army’s Army Air Corps.
Προσπαθούν να πείσουν ότι δεν τα άρπαξαν αλλά…. δεν πείθουν κανέναν, ούτε μεταξύ τους δεν πείθονται πια,
Η ΙΝΔΙΑ ακύρωσε την αγορά των ελικοπτέρων επειδή χρηματιστήκαν οι κυβερνητικοί ιθύνοντες.

INDIA NIXES AGUSTAWESTLAND HELICOPTER DEAL OVER BRIBERY CLAIMS
India has terminated a £466 million helicopter order with British-Italian company AgustaWestland International because of allegations the firm bribed officials.
New Delhi said on Wednesday that it had formally terminated a contract for the supply of 12 AW-101 transport helicopters because AugustaWestland had breached a ‘pre-contract integrity pact,’ but it declined to give further details.
India’s decision follows a lengthy dispute between AgustaWestland and the Indian government in which the company has argued that the contract it formed with the government on February 8, 2010, cannot be terminated while such allegations remain unsubstantiated.
The original bribery allegations emerged from an investigation in Italy that lead to an arrest warrant for Giuseppe Orsi, the chief executive of AgustaWestland’s Italian parent company, Finmeccanica. Investigators claim he paid £25.4m to a British man, Christian Michel, to act as a middleman between the company and family members of India’s former air chief, S.P. Tyagi. The Indian government has not specified the nature of the suspected bribery beyond these original allegations.
Such allegations first surfaced in February. A.K. Anthony, India’s defense minister, did not believe AgustaWestland’s and Tyagi’s denials and suspended the contract at that time.
AgustaWestland fought back in October, citing a clause in the contract that it says prevents the deal from being canceled until the dispute has been resolved. The Indian Government has repeatedly rejected this interpretation, saying it does not view ‘integrity-related issues’ as subject to such challenges. Nonetheless, the government appointed an arbitrator to handle the dispute on Wednesday, and AgustaWestland plans to continue fighting the termination on the same grounds.
AgustaWestland had already delivered three of the 12 helicopters and received 45 percent of the contract price when its contract was frozen by the Indian government in February. The aircraft were meant to transport India’s high-ranking politicians. Three more were completed, but they have not been delivered, and the remaining six are deemed close to completion in the Yeovil factory.
The Indian government might keep the three helicopters it has received and seek a rebate on the additional monies it has paid. This could be the reason why it used the word ‘termination’ and not ‘cancelation’ in its announcement on Wednesday, industry sources said.
The chairman and CEO of Italian defense giant Finmeccanica, Giuseppe Orsi, has resigned following his arrest Tuesday for alleged illegal payments overseas.
He has also left Finmeccanica’s board, according to a report from Reuters.
Orsi is under investigation for bribes to Indian officials when he led AgustaWestland, a subsidiary of Finmeccanica.
Italian police questioned him Friday. Earlier they had searched Orsi’s home and several offices at AgustaWestland near Milan.
Three other executives from AgustaWestland are under house arrest in the probe.
Orsi has led Finmeccanica since 2011. The Italian government owns about 30 percent of the company.
The alleged bribes are connected with a contract awarded in 2010 to produce a dozen helicopters for use by India’s political leaders. The sale was valued at €560 million, or $750 million.
Company Involved: AgustaWestland
Industry: Industrials
Industry Subsector: Defense
Official Involved: V.S. Saini, Air Force brigadier
Enforcement Action: Investigation
Summary: In the course of probing an allegedly corrupt helicopter supply contract between the Indian military and Finnmeccanica subsidiary AgustaWestland, Italian investigators uncovered evidence that may point to a separate scam surrounding helicopter procurement. Authorities reportedly found documents stating that in 2010 V.S. Saini demanded more than 250 million rupees (US $4.6 million) from AgustaWestland to “help eliminate the competition” for a giant 197-helicopter deal.
NHIndustries NH90 is a medium sized, twin-engine, multi-role military helicopter. It was developed and is manufactured by NHIndustries, which collaborates with and is owned by Eurocopter, AgustaWestland and Fokker Technologies.
