The fight for the CRH continues and it looks like Sikorsky is now actively running with the ball.
Quite honestly this raises two questions for me. Is the support that we're seeing from retired Airmen real or is it astroturf. We've seen such efforts before with the F-35 and the EFV and I'm wondering if we're seeing it here.
Second. I have sent e-mails but they aren't answering. Why did Sikorsky go forward with new build H-60's instead of the larger and roomier S-92's? That is the one helicopter that I really expected to take off in military circles but it just hasn't (its been extremely successful in the civilian market). The S-92 looks like a better fit for the CRH mission but Sikorsky didn't offer it. Why?
