Contract for 9 militarized EC135T1 for a new formed Portuguese Army aviation branch signed in 1999. Deliveries of the EC635T1 scheduled to begin in 2001 but in 2002 Portugal cancelled the request citing Eurocopter failure to deliver the aircraft in time. The manufacturer argued that disagreements in the helicopters equipment was the reason of the failure. The 9 helicopters ended up in Jordan converted to EC635T2 type
