Nick, Remember Congress hasn't had it's way with the VXX Decision yet.
You've got the S-92, S-76D, S-76C++, CH-60S (MH-60S, or whatever it's called), MH-53X, and many other helicopters on the way! And they are all paid proudly with tax money, going to American workers. Tottigol, this kind of outsourcing is not good for anyone in the helicopter industry, don't support it!
The S-92 is already the fastest selling helicopter since launch in Sikorsky history. The helicopter's accolades speak for themselves, plus there hasn't been one crash!
Lockheed can recruit as many people as they want, but sadly, 23 helicopters will not keep food on the table.
