Aiming to achieve the highest speed ever recorded for a helicopter, Sikorsky Aircraft Corp's X2 Technology demonstrator has relocated to the company's Florida flight facility as it begins the next phases of testing in the experimental program.
The X2 Technology demonstrator combines an integrated suite of technologies intended to advance the state-of-the-art, counter-rotating coaxial rotor helicopter. It is designed to demonstrate a helicopter can cruise comfortably at 250 knots while retaining such desirable attributes as excellent low speed handling, efficient hovering, and a seamless and simple transition to high speed.
