It’s Mh-60r V Nfh90 for Air 9000 Phase 8 Competition

Defence Will Run a Competitive Tender Process to Select the Air 9000 Phase 8 Naval Combat Helicopter Replacement for the Ran’s 16 S-70b-2 Seahawks and the 11 Cancelled Sh-2g(a) Seasprites, Defence Minister Senator John Faulkner Has Announced.

Contrary to Earlier Reports and Defence Sources Saying a Sole-sourced Contract for Lockheed Martin/sikorsky’s Mh-60r ‘romeo’ Would Likely Be Awarded as an Urgent Acquisition, Minister Faulkner and Cabinet’s National Security Committee Appear to Have Taken Onboard Arguments Put Forward by Eurocopter Subsidiary Australian Aerospace, Whose Stunning 11th Hour Marketing Effort Culminated in the Company Bringing an Nfh90 Demonstrator and Mockup to Australia in Late January/early February for the Pacific 2010 Naval Exposition in Sydney and Visits to Nowra and Canberra.
