I can’t say who won that is if you were referring to my last post about the A-129 and the AB-205. The demonstration of the A-129 was for potential customers looking for an attack helicopter. The direct competition was the Bell Cobra, which had a similar noisy (plop-plop-sounding rotor system). Since most of these potential customers were from mountainous countries they could not afford to have a noisy helicopter. Any sales that were made were after I left Agusta.
