In September 2003, ENAC applied the EU regulations, mandating that helicopters used for rescue must be equipped with twin turbine engines. Therefore 'Aiut Alpin Dolomites' with the many years of experience and consultation with international experts, decided to opt for the twin-engined helicopter EUROCOPTER EC 135 T2. In March 2015 the EC 135 T2 was replaced by a H 135 T3, serial number 1155, the first one delivered by Airbus Helicopters. The H 135 T3 is fitted with a winch „Human External Cargo“ with 90 m cable and double hoist hook.

| The total costs of the Helicopter, including all the medical equipment, 90m winch, and double hoist hook, amounted to Euro 4,8 million. Most of the amount was financed with a long-term loan from the Raiffeisen Banks of Castelrotto, Val Gardena, Val Badia, Brunico and the Central Raiffeisen Bank of Alto Adige.
