Portugal is attempting to cancel its contract with NH Industries for NH90 transport helicopters.
The negotiations between the two parties was disclosed in the half-year accounts for Eurocopter, which owns 62.5% of NH Industries, along with AgustaWestland and Fokker.
Cash-strapped Portugal has 10 NH90s on order for its army in the tactical transport helicopter variant. Eurocopter said in June it was attempting to save the deal, but conceded at the time: "It's hard to say when they will take them".
