The Pride of Cumbria II will be based in Langwathby, near Penrith, and was welcomed by the Great North Air Ambulance Service.
The aircraft, which also made its first flight in the county in front of its new team, will replace the existing Pride of Cumbria which is almost 30 years old. It has served the region since 2011.
David Stockton, chief executive of the charity, said: "Last summer, the Guardian of the North II arrived at the charity and now, with the addition of the Pride of Cumbria II, we have completely revamped our aircraft and it’s time to look forward, not back.
"The ongoing support of the people of Cumbria has been phenomenal and this new helicopter is our way of repaying that loyalty, which in turn, will allow us to save many more lives and keep families together."
The new Dauphin N3 aircraft is expected to serve Cumbria for about 15 years.
The charity said the Covid-19 pandemic left it with estimated financial losses of about £100,000 per month.
