Sikorsky Aircraft and Terma Sign MOU to Explore Potential Collaboration on Danish Maritime Helicopter Program Opportunity
STRATFORD, Conn., Feb. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Sikorsky Aircraft Corp. and Terma A/S today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding to explore potential collaborations if the Danish government decides to procure Sikorsky MH-60R SEAHAWK® helicopters. The government is currently evaluating alternatives including the MH-60R aircraft for a replacement maritime helicopter. The MH-60R aircraft would be procured via the Foreign Military Sale (FMS) channel with the U.S. government and supported by Sikorsky, a subsidiary of United Technologies Corp. (NYSE:UTX) . Terma A/S is a leading defense, aerospace and security company in Denmark with subsidiaries in the U.S., the Netherlands, Singapore and Germany.
“We see potentially strong synergies between our companies and the combined support they could bring to the Danish Maritime Helicopter Program,” said Leonard Wengler, Vice President, Navy Programs for Sikorsky. “The MH-60R helicopter, dubbed the ‘Romeo,’ is the most advanced multi-mission naval helicopter available today with demonstrated effectiveness during deployment with the U.S. Navy in 2009. Terma’s aerospace experience and expertise, including the production of advanced aerostructures and electronic warfare equipment, provide promising opportunities for collaboration.”
“We identify a substantial match between the two companies and are happy and proud to announce the signing of an MOU,” said Jorn Henrik Levy Rasmussen, Vice President, Strategic Marketing, Terma. “We look forward to combining Sikorsky’s and our core capabilities in respect of the maritime helicopter program and to investigating a shared number of exciting business opportunities in the international market.”
The multi-mission MH-60R helicopter is built by Sikorsky, with Lockheed Martin providing mission systems integration, and is designed to perform anti-submarine and surface warfare, search and rescue operations, vertical replenishment, medical evacuation, communications and data relay. The U.S. Navy plans to purchase a total of 300 MH-60R helicopters, and in July 2009 completed a highly successful six-month deployment of an MH-60R squadron with the U.S.S. John C. Stennis carrier strike group in the western Pacific.
Sikorsky Aircraft Corp., based in Stratford, Conn., is a world leader in helicopter design, manufacture and service. United Technologies Corp., based in Hartford, Conn., provides a broad range of high technology products and support services to the aerospace and building systems industries.
Headquartered in Aarhus, Denmark, Terma provides products and systems for a number of defense and non-defense applications, including command and control systems, radar systems, electronic warfare systems, space technology, and aeronautic structures for high-performance military aircraft. The company realized 2008/09 sales of approximately USD 200 million and employs approximately 1,250 people worldwide.

Lockheed Martin Delivers 50th Fully Missionized MH-60R Multimission Helicopter to the U.S. Navy
OWEGO, N.Y., Feb. 9 /PRNewswire/ — Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT) has formally delivered the 50th MH-60R helicopter, fully equipped for its mission to protect the U.S. Navy fleet from hostile submarines and surface ships.
The newest member of the SEAHAWK® family of maritime helicopters is designed and manufactured by Sikorsky, with advanced mission systems integration by Lockheed Martin.
“I am extremely proud of the MH-60R team, which has enabled this important milestone in the Romeo’s continued introduction to the fleet,” said Rear Adm. Steve Eastburg, Program Executive Officer Air ASW, Assault and Special Mission programs. “The enormous multimission capability of this platform continues to be leveraged by the warfighter in new and innovative ways. It is truly a game-changing platform that will deliver powerful capabilities, ranging from low-end to high-end warfare, in the years ahead.”
During the February 3 delivery ceremony at Lockheed Martin’s Mission Systems & Sensors facility in Owego, NY, Rear Adm. Paul Grosklags, vice commander, Naval Air Systems Command thanked Lockheed Martin and Sikorsky employees and other key suppliers for their contributions to this important program.
“The MH-60R has evolved over 30 years, through lessons learned during developmental testing, fleet deployments and maintenance on these rugged airframes and mission systems, in the harshest maritime environments,” said Grosklags. “It stands now as the premier multimission helicopter in operation today. The U.S. Navy is grateful for the tremendous teamwork and experience you bring to deliver this remarkable weapon system.”
This week, an aircrew from Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron Seven Zero (HSM-70) will fly the 50th aircraft from the Owego, NY, facility to its new home at the Naval Air Station in Jacksonville, Fla. The aircraft is the 10th MH-60R delivered to HSM-70, which was established in February 2009.
HSM-70 will deploy with 11 MH-60R aircraft aboard the USS George H.W. Bush carrier strike group (CVN 77) in 2011. To date, the U.S. Navy has established and equipped four MH-60R squadrons, with plans to fill out 16 more through the purchase of 300 aircraft.
“The 50th delivery is a great opportunity to reflect on the success of the MH-60R within the fleet, to look forward to the expansion of the MH-60R throughout the helicopter community and to recognize the organizations that have brought this tremendous capability to the Navy,” said Captain Dean Peters, the U.S. Navy’s MH-60 program manager. “Today, these highly integrated platforms are building a situational awareness picture of the surface and undersea domains that is proving invaluable to fleet operators.”
As mission systems integrator for the Sikorsky-built MH-60R, Lockheed Martin is responsible for integrating the helicopter’s digital cockpit, a multi-mode radar, acoustic sonar suite, long-range infrared camera and other advanced sensors to detect, identify, track and engage surface and subsurface targets. Lockheed Martin also integrates a self defense system to protect the aircraft from missile threats.
“The highly integrated nature of the Common Cockpit(TM) avionics suite and the mission systems allows the aircrew to spend less time interpreting data and more time prosecuting the target,” said George Barton, Lockheed Martin’s director of Naval Helicopter Programs.
U.S. Navy test squadrons concluded 1900 hours of rigorous MH-60R flight and mission systems evaluations in 2005. Since full rate production began in early 2006, Lockheed Martin and Sikorsky have delivered all MH-60R aircraft to the U.S. Navy ahead of schedule.
The companies expect to deliver up to 27 fully-missionized MH-60R aircraft in calendar year 2010 to the U.S. Navy as part of a five-year contract for 139 MH-60R aircraft through 2013. Extra production capacity exists to deliver an additional 20 aircraft each year for sale by the U.S. Government to international navies.
The U.S. Navy deployed with 11 MH-60R aircraft for the first time from January to July 2009 with the USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74) carrier strike group. During exercises in the western Pacific, the MH-60R proved to be an exceptional sub hunter and surface warfare weapons platform, accomplishing a 95 percent sortie completion rate, and showing it can perform utility and search and rescue missions among other secondary missions.
Headquartered in Bethesda, Md., Lockheed Martin is a global security company that employs about 140,000 people worldwide and is principally engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration and sustainment of advanced technology systems, products and services. The Corporation reported 2009 sales of $45.2 billion.

Australia Awards BAE Systems Helicopter Support Contract
Filed under: Australia, BAE Systems, Business Line, Companies, Contract Awards, Countries, Events, Military Aviation, Sikorsky, UTC, logistics
The Australian Government announced that they have awarded BAE Systems a three year contract with five options to support their fleet of S-70 Black Hawk utility helicopters. The contract is worth $35 million (Australian) for the fist three years. It is expected at the end of the eight years that the Sikorsky helicopters will be replaced by new aircraft.
The Black Hawk is in use with the U.S. Army, Navy and Air Force as well as enjoying strong sales to overseas customers. It was developed to replace the ubiquitous UH-1 of the Vietnam Era. The S-70 is the export version of the aircraft. Australia has been a strong ally of the U.S. in its fighting in Afghanistan and has had Black Hawks since the mid-Eighties.
Sikorsky and Workers Avoid Strike
Filed under: Business Line, Companies, Connecticut, Events, Services, Sikorsky, States, U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, UTC, production program
Sikorsky and its unionized workers were able to agree on a contract today avoiding another potentially costly strike. The Journal Inquirer reports that the Teamsters Union and Sikorsky agreed to a contract on Sunday. Three years ago a long strike severely impacted the ability of the company to build aircraft at the desired rate of production. Since then Sikorsky has signed a big UH-60 Black Hawk contract as well as begun the CH-53K program and hopes to possibly win the CSAR-X re-competition. With all the work underway the new contract is substantially better in terms of pay then the last one. The strike was about employee contributions to health insurance although the union ended up settling on the company’s proposal.
VH-71 Suffers Cost Breach and Connecticut is Lobbying
Filed under: Business Line, Companies, Congress, Connecticut, Contract Awards, Department of Defense, Events, Federal Budget Process, Lockheed Martin, Military Aviation, Proposal, Restructuring, Services, Sikorsky, States, U.S. Navy, UTC, commercial aviation, development program, production program
The Connecticut Post reports that the VH-71 new Presidential helicopter program suffered a “Nunn-McCurdy” cost breach. There are two levels of this breach and the higher one, a 25% increase, requires the Secretary of Defense to certify the program is still required for the U.S. national defense. The fine Senators and Congressmen from Connecticut have pricked up their ears at this development and want to meet with DoD to discuss canceling the program and giving it to Sikorsky. The contract with Lockheed Martin has seen considerable cost growth due to requirements creep since the contract was awarded. This has required wholesale changes to the EH-101 platform selected. Hence the great increase in cost and schedule for the program. Of course the DoD will have to weigh the savings if another vendor proposes something cheaper with the time required to restart the program. With a new administration it is conceivable that the contract could be canceled and started over, like ARH, but it probably won’t happen.
Canada and Sikorsky Have Issues with New Helicopters
Filed under: Business Line, Canada, Contract Additions, Contract Awards, Military Aviation, Restructuring, Sikorsky, production program
In 2004 the Canadian government ordered 40 new helicopters from Sikorsky to replace aging Sea King search and rescue aircraft. The original contract was for about $5 billion Canadian and set an initial delivery date of 2008. Now The Globe and Mail reports that due to requirement changes requested by the government $117 million had to be paid to Sikorsky. The contract has also slipped deliveries to 2012. There are also indications that due to further changes planned by the government more money will have to be paid. At the same time Canada has refused to collect a penalty clause in the contract to punish the company for delayed deliveries.
KC-X haunts CSAR-X
Filed under: Agusta Westland, Boeing, Contract Awards, Department of Defense, GAO, Lockheed Martin, Military Aviation, Proposal, Protest, Sikorsky, U.S. Air Force, commercial aviation, production program
With the decision to punt on the KC-45 recompete by the current administration there are some worries that this might affect the CSAR-X contract as well. Last word was that the announcement of who won the new GAO ordered competition would come sometime this Fall. Now some of the competitors; Sikorsky, Augusta Westland and Boeing; are concerned that perhaps this decision will delay the announcement of the winner. Boeing had won a contract only to have a protest upheld by GAO for the USAF not applying their criteria correctly.
See this short AP article for more.
India goes with AW for new VIP aircraft
Filed under: Agusta Westland, Contract Awards, India, Military Aviation, Sikorsky, commercial aviation, production program
Like the US Navy, India awarded a contract to Augusta Westland for their new VIP transport helicopter. The contract is worth about $300 M. Sikorsky was one of the unsuccessful bidders with their S-92 aircraft. The EH-101 selected will offer a larger cabin, although it is a more expensive aircraft. US companies have been trying hard lately to break into the Indian market as that country has turned away from its traditional English and Russian suppliers. India has also made a great effort to begin developing a sophisticated, indigenous arm suppliers.
See The Hartford Courant article about this contract here.
US Air Force to award CSAR-X recompete soon
Filed under: Agusta Westland, Boeing, Contract Awards, GAO, Military Aviation, Northrop Grumman Corp., Proposal, Protest, Sikorsky, U.S. Air Force, UTC, commercial aviation, development program, production program
In a contract that has fallen to the back burner recently due to KC-45 events, the Air Force announced that they would complete the recompete for the CSAR-X by September. Contract award would be soon after. The CSAR-X contract to replace the HH-60 PaveHawk aircraft was originally awarded to Boeing with a variant of the CH-47. Sikorsky and Lockheed Martin protested and won with the GAO ruling that the Air Force did not apply the selection criteria properly. The whole contract was recompeted with Boeing, Sikorsky and Lockheed resubmitting bids.

SAC sliding Canadian contract
Filed under: Canada, Contract Awards, Military Aviation, Sikorsky, UTC, production program
The story out of Canada is that the contract to buy 28 H-92 aircraft from SAC is sliding to the right. There are also rumors of cost increases. The Canadian government is threatening to cancel the contract if delays and cost increases are true. Normally for a contract like this to buy an established system starts experiencing slips or cost growth there are usually requirement changes or the contractor didn’t really provide what the customer desired. There is no word yet on what has happened. It may be that Sikorsky was just a little aggressive in their schedule.
Army awards option for UH-60 aircraft
Filed under: Contract Awards, Sikorsky, U.S. Army, production program
The Hartford Courant announced that Sikorsky was awarded a contract option for 6 UH-60M and 2 HH-60. This is probably a FMS option, but no details were given. Usually the full years of aircraft are bought in the Fall after Congress passes the Defense Appropriation Bill. An incremental award during the Fiscal Year may be due to FMS or the receipt of supplemental funding. A key part of any defense procurement contract is that the more you buy in a year the cheaper they are, so it also might be to get the Army a price break.
EADS and Tata ink agreement
Filed under: BAE Systems, EADS, India, Sikorsky, Tata, commercial aviation
Tata just does not make the cheapest car in the world, but has now begun forging agreements with foreign defense companies to bid on Indian contracts. See The Financial Times for more on this. Tata has joined with EADS to begin preparation for bidding on a communication contract. They have signed with Sikorsky to make helicopter cabins, and is also in talks with BAE. This is a sensible way for the large company to begin getting into the defense business. Of course, with the US companies the export controls may limit what they can do.
Connecticut politicians lobby for Sikorsky for VH-71 contract
Filed under: Contract Awards, Federal Budget Process, Lockheed Martin, Sikorsky, U.S. Navy, commercial aviation, development program
A group of 11 Congressman, mainly from Connecticut, wrote a letter to DoD asking for the Lockheed contract be canceled and put out for re-bid. See Hartford Courant for more. The hope is that Sikorsky will win the recompete. Read more
FY09 Defense Budget Good to Sikorsky
Filed under: Federal Budget Process, Sikorsky, development program, production program
This analysis from The Connecticut Post Online shows that Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation is doing well. The budget will buy over 100 helicopters and provide money to modernize others. This is not surprising as Sikorsky makes the UH-60 and CH-53, both of which just underwent a block upgrade. The UH-60M and CH-53K are also individually more expensive then previous models. The US Military needs new and improved helicopters. The Army is flying the crap out of the UH-60 in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Marines are using the V-22 to supplement the 53 in its various roles, but in many parts of the war helicopters are it.
Boeing and USAF attempt to mend ways
Filed under: Boeing, Contract Awards, Federal Budget Process, Lockheed Martin, Protest, Sikorsky, U.S. Air Force, production program
In this detailed article from The Washington Post, the relationship between the Air Force and Boeing is examined relative to the Darleen Druyun scandal. The complete article is here. Ms. Druyun was the senior Civil Servant in the Air Force’s acquisition office. She was negotiating for a job with Boeing while representing the Air Force in contract negotiations. That is about the biggest, and simplest, conflict-of-interest a government employee can have. Ms. Druyun’s daughter also some how ended up with a job at Boeing as well. The fall out from the case led Ms. Druyun to go to jail, and Boeing to pay a large fine and make a lot of promises.
The article is discussing two major awards the Air Force will make soon for two new aircraft. The KC-X to supplement the aged KC-135; and a new rescue helicopter – the CSAR-X. Boeing and Druyun got into trouble over an attempt by the Air Force to lease replacement tankers in 2002. Boeing had won the CSAR-X contract with a version of the C-47, but the GAO upheld a protest by Sikorsky and Lockheed Martin, and the contract had to be re-competed.
This article highlights some of the issues inherent in government contracting.
3 companies submit new proposals for US Air Force CSAR-X
Filed under: Boeing, GAO, Lockheed Martin, Sikorsky, U.S. Air Force, development program
Boeing, Lockheed, and Sikorsky all submitted new proposals for the CSAR-X. See an article here. The contract had originally been awarded to Boeing for a varient of the CH-47, but the GAO upheld a protest by Lockheed and Sikorsky and required new proposals be allowed. More coverage of the CSAR-X fiasco here. The new aircraft will replace the current fleet of Black Hawk aircraft used to conduct search and rescue operations. The Air Force has also invested in a small number of V-22 aircraft that can carry out the same mission, but is primarily to be used for Special Operations missions.
Interesting analysis of United Technologies performance
The Motley Fool has some interesting analysis about the recent award by the US Army of the UH-60 production contract to Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (SAC), which is part of UTC. While the size of the contract is large, $1.7 Billion, it is a drop in the bucket in total UTC revenues. SAC also has had the lowest margin of any part of the company. The article is here. While it is true that UTC is a very large corporation, the award will keep SAC busy for several years and has the potential to spin off Foreign Military Sales and other work.
Sikorsky wins more UH-60 work
According to Defenselink.mil Sikorsky was awarded a $1.5 billion contract for UH-60 and HH-60 aircraft. Of note, the proposal was received by the Army in October, 2005. So this contract took over 2 years to be awarded. See the DoD announcement here.

U.S. Army and Navy Sign Five Year Production Contract with Sikorsky for UH-60 Aircraft
Filed under: Cobham Defense Electronic Systems, Contract Awards, Sikorsky, U.S. Army
The US Army awarded Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (SAC) a five year contract for the production of UH-60 utility helicopters. The UH-60 is the primary transport aircraft in service with the US Army. It also operates off of US Navy ships in a variety of roles such as logistic support and anti-submarine warfare. The contract is for over 500 aircraft and has a potential value of over 11 Billion dollars. See the SAC Press Release.
