Thank you for the data

FltMech,

Thanks for the data. I was especially interested in the requirement for minimum rotor to rotor spacing.

I just added to my earlier post an image superimposing the V-280 on top of the Defiant in a screen shot of the hangar used in the Boeing video.

Based on this image generated from available published data, how do you see the Defiant requiring less hangar space? Note that the blades on the Defiant do not fold, despite promotional videos you have seen. Sikorsky is still attempting to make the X-2 rigid rotor work without the complexity of folding
