Bell V-280 to replace Blackhawk

The title says most of it. I'm pleasantly surprised that the V-280 was selected. I thought for sure the Army was going to go for another long development program for the promising but less refined pusher offerings. Bell has a lot of experience with the Osprey which has the best safety rating and lowest cost per mile of any current rotor aircraft in US service. The V-280 has many refinements on the tilt twin rotor design, and has the best proven specs from any other offering.

Just popping in quick to post this from my phone on break, so sorry if this already has a thread I missed.
