It seems I haven't seen cabin dimensions of the two so far. Any numbers out there in the wild?
No cabin dimensions for either aircraft I can find. But lots of photos of seating layouts for mock-ups and artist renderings. Based on seating layout of the V-280, the cabin appears to be longer and narrower than the SB>1.



While both seating layouts have benefits and compromises, I find it odd the SB>1 layout does not have provisions for the side gunners like the V-280.
