Hunt3r.j2 Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 (edited) In short, helicopters like the Sikorsky X2, the AH-56A (CL-804), X49A Speedhawk, and the Piasecki 16H. They've certainly be around for a while, but the question here now is if they would actually have a viable use on the battlefield. I'd imagine for transport helicopters they'd be huge, being able to get to and from the battle faster. The X-49A is expected to cruise at the Vne of the current UH-60L. What do you think? This could push the normal speed of a helicopter to 250 knots, which would be quite attractive. Edited November 2, 2009 by Hunt3r.j2
