The description on the print states:

N425NA is a NASA Airbus H135 helicopter based at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Its primary missions include space-launch contingency support, security, surveillance, wildlife control, and emergency response for Kennedy’s H135 fleet. The aircraft is equipped with infrared cameras for nighttime surveillance, stabilized camera platforms, and the ability to stream images to personnel on the ground and help monitor Kennedy’s roughly 140,000 acres. Built-in medical-equipment mounts and instrument-flight capability allow transportation of injured personnel in unfavorable weather. NASA also uses the helicopter to support potential launch-pad emergencies. 

Powered by two Safran Arrius 2B2 Plus turboshaft engines using FADEC to automatically monitor and manage fuel flow and engine operation, the aircraft has a cruise speed of 160 mph and a range of 340 nautical miles.
