To be fair, its hard to make a bad choice from that list - they are all good helos and given well trained crews they are all very useful.

Aren't these slated to be manufactured by ADI, Brown & Root and Hawker Pacific in Australia?

:D

[Hellfish]

I thought Australia was going to use the South African Rooivalk? Or was that someone else in the SE Asia area?

[Philbert]

I dunno, but theyre advertising like crazy for mechanics ect to work on those babies. theres ads everywhere for it.
Same thing for the abrams as well.
