I stand to be corrected, but to me the National Defense article is a non-story. Yes, the EH101 will need substantial changes to meet the VH-71A Kestrel role, but that's what the SDD contract was for, and the S-92 would presumably have needed a similar level of development for the very specialized VXX role.

I have no financial interest in the VH-71 program, so it's just a personal view !
