Long story ,some explained in previous threads.
Bottom line..initially done on the cheap around Lynx dynamics and Gem engines with poor range and economics as a result...later developed with the T700 engines and five blade composite rotor but Westland broke and no government funding so died.Prototypes at Helicopter Museum plus a couple of producrtion aircraft if you ever visit UK.
