It was formed in July 2000 as an Anglo-Italian multinational company, when Finmeccanica and GKN merged their respective helicopter subsidiaries (Agusta and Westland Helicopters) to form AgustaWestland, with each holding a 50% share.

Leonardo S.p.A. Helicopter Division, tidigare Agusta Westland, är en helikoptertillverkare med tillverkning i bland andra i Italien, Storbritannien, Polen och USA. Bolaget bildades i juli 2000 efter att Finmeccanica SpA och GKN plc slog samman sina dotterbolag Agusta och Westland Helicopters till AgustaWestland med en ägarandel om 50 % vardera. I maj 2004 sålde GKN sin andel till Finmeccanica, och AgustaWestland, är sedan dess ett helägt av Finmeccanica (nu Leonardo S.p.A.)..
