Hello Everyone,
As we all speculate what will/might happen going forwards, I have just been given some information, from a reliable US source, as follows.
The X-Wedge is no longer being produced by S&S, they have a small inventory of parts/spares, with no plan to produce any more.
The design and manufacturing rights for this engine have been sold entirely to a foreign (non US) company. They will not say where or who, but have said an announcement will be made in January 2021.
Would or could this be something to do with MMC - making/refining the engine themselves (in UK) thereby avoiding any tariffs etc?
I don't suppose S&S have sold very many more than those taken by MMC for the M3W (circa 2500 units?)
Has anybody else heard this information?
Without S&S involvement, how will we get on for spares?
Are MMC/S&S supposed to support their product with spares for a certain time?
What do you think?
Andrew
