I was trawling t'interweb at lunchtime for current/future Westland orders. As far as i can see...

6 x Super Lynx 300 for Algeria
2 x Wildcats for Philippines
8 x Wildcats for South Korea

12 x Merlins for Italy (CSAR)
16 x Merlins for Norway
2 x Merlins for Nigeria
10-15 Merlins for Algerian Gendarmes
27-32 Merlins for Algerian Air Force (to be built in Algeria)

Also rumored that some of the canceled Indian Merlins have been sold as VVIP transports to other countries.
