La société américaine AAR Airlift a été choisie par l'Onu pour assurer des prestations de transport aérien en RDC. AAR Airlift transportera des personnels et du fret au profit de la Monusco, la mission de maintien de la paix onusienne au Congo Kinshasa.

 

La valeur de ce contrat, d'une durée maximale de trois ans (avec les options), est estimée à 19 millions de dollars.

 

AAR déploiera à compter de juillet prochain des hélicoptères pour assurer ces prestations. La société assurera aussi la maintenance de ces appareils et le soutien logistique.

 

AAR est déjà présent en Afrique mais ce contrat, avec l'Onu, constitue une première. En septembre dernier, AAR avait décroché un contrat SAR et CASEVAC à partir de Niamey pour le compte du Naval Supply Systems Command ; un peu plus tôt en 2014, un autre contrat concernant les pays suivants: Ouganda, RCA, RDC et Soudan du Sud, lui avait été attribué par l'US Transportation Command.
