AugustaWestland, Europe's leading helicopter maker, said it would aim to achieve the reductions as much as possible through voluntary redundancy, but it could not rule out compulsory job losses.
AugustaWestland's parent company, Finmeccanica of Italy, last year warned it would have to start laying off workers at Westland unless the British government finalised a new order for Lynx helicopters by the end of 2004, although Westland today said it had already factored in a delay.

  AgustaWestland EH101 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Meanwhile, the Marina Militare (Italian Navy) was also seeking a replacement for its (Agusta-built) Sea Kings, leading Agusta to a series of discussions with Westland about the possibility of a joint development.
This culminated in the joint venture being finalised in November 1979 and a new company (EH Industries) being formed to manage the project the following year.
EH Industries no longer exists, having been incorporated into the parent when the two companies merged.

 Ottawa Business Journal - News Story
The federal government handed out the $5-billion contract to replace Canada's aging fleet of Sea King helicopters with little fanfare on Tuesday while a legal action is still underway by the losing bidder.
In August, AugustaWestland launched a legal action to have the contract revoked and the bidding process started anew, a somewhat unappealing prospect considering it took the federal government more than a decade to get this far in the process to replace the aging Sea Kings.
AugustaWestland has called the selection process "biased, unfair and contrary to the rules of the procurement", allegations it has yet to prove in court.

The fact that the 101 is a much better helicopter and is more suited for the job was only mentioned one short time during the whole segment on ABC.
Agree with most of what you say, but I must point out that the EH 101 is the largest collaborative helicopter project in history, and therefore some compliments should also be paid to the UK and the US in producing a formidable product.
But the overall size of the 101 clearly was a factor in terms of their capabilities.

Additional Chinook's, possibly navalised, are expected to be purchased as part of the SABR project.
The AugustaWestland Merlin HM.3+ (previously favoured for SABR) is considered to be larger and more expensive than ideal for a combined SCMR/BLUH/SABR-light requirement, while the Future Lynx is too small.
The industrial (and political) requirement that SCMR and SABR aircraft must be manufactured in the UK made an interesting turn in May 2004 when was announced that GKN was negotiating the sale of its stake in AugustaWestland to Finmeccanica for £1 billion, making the company entirely Italian owned.

This led to the signing in 1979 of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Italian and British Governments to co-operate in the joint development of a medium lift helicopter to fulfil the roles of shipborne Anti-Submarine and Anti-Surface Warfare, military utility and civilian transport.
Overall folded size of the EH101 is only marginally larger than that of the SH-3 Sea King, but because of the arrangement of the undercarriage the 101 will be able to use less deck space than its predecessor.
In 2000 AugustaWestland proposed a compound lift version of the Merlin to meet the MASC requirement.
