Love the promo videos. Successful mission. No casualties. No damage to their amazing new whatchamacallit. That's the way to fight wars. In promo videos

This whole tilt rotor thing is garbage imo. I think if you're going to replace proven airframes with anything then you have to make them better and improve their mission capabilities, not reduce them. You're not going to be able to land that thing to extract troops from tight spots like you can a Blackhawk. You can't arm that thing in a way that's going to make it more maneuverable and lethal than an Apache. The only airframe that you might be able to replace with one of these monstrosities in the Chinook, but why? This tilt rotor thing is garbage.

In my humble opinion the Sikorsky design is superior. It uses counter-rotating rotor blades for stability and a pusher prop in the rear for speed. There is no need for a tail rotor.
