Index ≈ ×1.05 to ×1.27 on the aircraft value, already with ferry, ANAC nationalization and ICMS.
Market estimate: value + ferry + ANAC nationalization + ICMS, no legal review. Federal taxes (II/IPI/PIS/COFINS) ~0% for aircraft (NCM 88.02); the weight is the state ICMS, higher for private use.
Operate = direct cost/hour (fuel + maintenance + engine); excludes fixed costs (hangar, crew, insurance). World: heavy/super-medium offshore-VIP twins (H175, AW189, S-92) sit at the top of the helicopter charter market (general 2025 heli charter US$1,200-5,000+; Sikorsky S-92 / AW189 class quoted upper range). EC145 T2 large twin benchmarked at R$20,500/~US$4,000/hr via Flapper (May-2020), H175 is larger so above this. BR: Flapper quotes twin-engine helicopters R$14,000-22,000/hr; H175 is at/above the top twin bracket -> ~US$4,000-7,000/hr at ~R$5.2/USD. BR/world specific published H175 rates not public; ranges inferred from class.
Super-medium twin (EC175 / H175 / ACH175; AC352 in China), EIS Dec-2014, in production. New/list price ~US$16.8M-17.9M before completions, commonly quoted ~US$17M (BJTonline/AvBuyer aggregated 2024-25; BoltFlight US$15-18M). Pre-owned negligible/thin secondary market: only ~38 delivered 2014-2019, mostly lessor-owned (AvBuyer spotlight). Resale envelope US$8M-12M, ~US$10M average (BoltFlight). DOC US$6,337/hr variable at 300 hrs/yr and US$9/gal; total hourly cost US$12,547 and annual budget US$1.25M (aircraftcostcalculator / Conklin & de Decker).
