The army already pay to operate Chinook from the Land budget. If you mean a transfer of assets to AAC then best of luck with getting all those RAF Chinook crews to transfer, or finding enough AAC crew to start from scratch.
Fully aware of that after spending a large proportion of my service on SH.Does the Land budget also cover the recruiting, training, maintenance, housing, infrastructure and other 'soft' costs of the SH fleet?
