Boeing’s proposal would transfer all intellectual property, data and production rights for the AW101 from Italy and the UK to the USA
Puzzled by this. Does this mean only Boeing can produce Merlins in the US (and not LM)? The way it reads it looks like AW is getting out of Merlin-making entirely?

(Also note that US has no objection to technology transfer TO them - see F-22, etc)
