General Description:

The Sikorsky X2 Technology Demonstrator combines several technologies to produce an aircraft with low speed helicopter characteristics but capable of cruising at 250 knots. These technologies include contra-rotating rotors, an advanced pusher propeller, active vibration control, and advanced drag reduction techniques. Besides speed, this design also has the advantage of excellent high altitude performance. This technology will be developed into several different new aircraft, including a light attack helicopter and high-speed SAR system
