BLR developed its FastFin Tail Rotor Enhancement and Stability System for installation on Airbus H125. It does not modify the vertical fin like in the Bell models but is comprised of an Advanced Tailboom Aerodynamic Cowling (ATAC), a Tailboom Strake and Vortex Generators.
The first factory installation was completed on February 2018. By that time, 30 AS350B3/H125 FastFin systems have been sold to operators in 7 countries
