Sikorsky X2 family

Sikorsky has truly gone “all in” with this technology. Trying to get the European market will require them to team with Airbus or Leonardo with appropriate workshare to have a realistic opportunity. Given the Italian AF Commanders recent comments I expect that negotiations have been ongoing with Leonardo if they are publicly talking of the effort. Likely prior to the FLRAA decision.

Thanks @yasotay. I’m somewhat surprised as this will give Leonardo access to tons of confidential competitive info on the strengths and weaknesses of X2 technology. Which it can then use to sell more tilt rotors and defend/grow its market position.

Sounds a little desperate of Sikorsky honestly. Win win for Leonardo.
