Back in the late 80's we were at NHA. The Osprey/V-22/Tilt Rotor was the next big thing, which included a Bell pitch about how a Tilt Rotor would be the next platform for a LAMPS detachment on Helo capable ships in the USN. It is now 35 years later, and MH-60R is still LAMPS (heir to the SH-60B).
As I said: I'll believe it when I see it. Talk is cheap.
(And if they do make it work, great).
