Britsih Specification EH.125D Helicopter

[hesham]

Hi,

in 1952,British Air Ministry issued a Specifiaction EH.125D to cover Percival
P.74,and I am asking if there was any anther competitors.

If there was,I can suggest Westland W.80,Saro P.508 and maybe Fairey
also involved ?.

No, there were no other competitors. The Specification was raised to cover the development of the Percival P.74, which was a private-venture that the MoS got behind, hence the Specification to make it official.
