PlayBell goes to war! With its V-280 Valor, Bell, the American helicopter manufacturer, intends to win the tender for the U.S. Army in 2017. A market estimated by the Department of Defense at more than $ 58 billion! No, this is not the latest fashionable arcade game, but in fact the future V-280 Bell Helicopter. For the time being, it only exists on paper, but not for long. Inspired by the current V-22 Osprey helicopter, the U.S. manufacturer plans to fly their prototype in 2017 intending to convince the U.S. Army to replace its Black Hawk helicopters with this Multi-Role tilt-rotor helicopter; foremost in innovation. "It will have a body similar to that of Black Hawk, it might be a little wider ... It will have a rigid wing with turbine fixed at the ends, and a mechanical adjustable propeller supporting ... This will conventional use in helicopter mode and very fast flight propellers examined. The U.S. Army in fact demands a minimum speed of 230 knots. The V-280, as its name suggests can go well beyond 280 knots, or 520 km / h, and carry 11 soldiers and 4 crew members over a distance of 1,500 kms ( miles ). Originally designed as a troop or equipment carrier version, an attack version of the V-280 could also see the day. Objective: To be able to replace the 4,000 U.S. Army helicopters by 2030. "There are about two years, the Department of Defense has estimated the cost of this new program of vertical lift aircraft, I believe, more than 58 billion dollars! And we think it is realistic, and even the number of helicopters to replace the versions chosen over 'transport' or 'attack' it could even be much more.' A huge market that Bell intends to win with this technology demonstrator helicopter. The manufacturer is already considering production in Texas by 2020. But in the military field, the enemy, Boeing-Sikorsky is lying in ambush, and seems determined not to lose the battle.
