martin_sam_2000 Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 this link should work. it seems that it has a "," where it should have a "." in the above link. LINK looks like a pretty neat piece of machinery. Sean Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GRAIL007 Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 I was wondering when we were going to get some of the first helos, looks like a pretty sweet ride. Now I am wondering when we can get some inflight video of these units..... cheers Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ST0RM Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 That is such an awesome helicopter. Sad that it wasn't selected to replace the Pavehawks. Good for our neighbors to the North. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Litvyak Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Good to see this progressing! Can't wait to see these enter service finally! :) Any 1/72 kits to build one of these with? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-Neu- Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 ... one of the most poorly managed programs in decades has finally landed. We could have had EH-101s in service 15 years ago if this wasn't so mangled in 1994, or four years ago if we didn't chose the CH-148 on '05. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We could have had EH-101s in service 15 years ago if this wasn't so mangled in 1994, or four years ago if we didn't chose the CH-148 on '05. What were the other competitors in the latest competition? Sikorsky's S-92 helo (now the CH-148), Lockheed/NH industries NH-90, and the Augusta/Westland EH-101 correct? The other 2 helos looked to be more established and it was definitely risky to be a launch customers for the Cyclone, oh well new kit for the CF is always nice!

phantom Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Don't know much about the NH-90, but the unnamed party at the time would never have let the 101 win. Would have made sense to me maintenance wise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
