Bell, of course, got a CD&RR OTA contract as well.

I love how the Sikorsky press release talks about their “proven” configuration. They have another couple of weeks to make their 230 knots in March commitment... and there’s far more to proving a platform than flying straight and level at far less than your design speed.
