Rationalisation
I suppose scrapping the seasprite will help achieve the rationalisation of aircraft types that the Navy keep talking about, but then again arent they now getting 3 x A109's to keep guys hands in why they wait for an operational type.
The sooner the Army and Navy go to a light twin for training and NH90's all round, as well as CH47's and Tigers the better. Take the short term loss of capability for a huge gain in the future. At least navy guys wont then have to go to AS350, then A109, and then an operational type.
