Interesting, so I take it this is possibly going to replace the Kiowa's role. Can't say I am fond of the way the tail looks. Will be interesting to see if the U.S. adopts it since Sikorsky will have to recoup it's costs somehow.

So anyone up for one of these in FS, LOL. The airfile will be a challenge that is for sure.

Looks similar to the Lockheed Cheyenne project. Despite that one's unmatched performance, cost overruns and missed deadlines killed it off. Yeah, an S-97 would be nice for FS too but at this stage of the game, too little is known about it's actual performance capabilities. IMO.
