Praet 0 Posted February 11, 2006 He will use them... there is a order for 23 EH101 for the Nighthawks, they will replace the Seaking until 2014... There won't be any EH101 as Presidential transport helicopters. The selected model to replace the VH-3D is the US101, a variant of the EH101 re-designed by Lockheed to comply with the required safety standards (most deal with crashworthyness) and designated VH-71A. 23 VH-71A have been ordered for delivery from 2009 to 2014.
