.@MDHelicopters (MDH) seeing lots of Eastern European interest in MD 530 #CayuseWarrior (#LittleBird) light attack and scout helicopter - company spox tells me at @DefenceIQ #IMHelicon. 1/7 Image Ukraine war driving interest. Spox did not name the prospective Euro customer(s), but those flying ageing #WarsawPact-era airframes inc Bulgaria, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, & Czech Rep possible contenders. Not inconceivable #Ukraine itself might be recipient. 2/7

As heralded, #UK, #Italy, and #Japan have merged their #Tempest and F-X future fighter projects into the Global Combat Air Programme (#GCAP). With a @JanesINTEL story inbound, a short thread of some key points... 1/7 While the UK led Tempest and Japan drove F-X, the GCAP will have no lead nation or company. Programme will be a 'partnership of equals', with @BAESystemsAir heading up development on behalf of the UK, @Leonardo_live for Italy, and @MHI_Group for Japan. 2/7
