VPAW - Any plan to get the H160?

With Ambulance Victoria getting the AW139, does anyone see an upgrade in the future of the Victoria Police Air Wing? Maybe the same, or an H160?

I hear they are really burning some hours recently, up to 160 hours a month on some machines. Dauphins haven't skipped a beat.


Not sure if an AW139 could match that.

I found an ideal new addition to tackle all the rising suburban crime happening here lately:

It would provide some parts commonality, but having different engines might be a deal-breaker.
