NFH pitches at Phase 8

In our November issue we took a closer look at the Team Romeo MH-60R, its capabilities, development and service entry with the US Navy, and its claims to the Royal Australian Navy’s Air 9000 Phase 8 Naval Combat helicopter replacement program.

With a decision due to go before federal cabinet’s National Security Committee likely before Christmas, it’s timely to focus in on the competing NH Industries NH 90 NFH which is being marketed here by Eurocopter subsidiary, Australian Aerospace.
