FLIR for RAF SAR Sea Kings
Been reading about the new multi sensor search system going on the Crab version of the SAR Sea King (FLIR and a new RADAR). Why didn't the MOD buy some similar kit for the RN SAR Boys?
Would I be right in thinking that the RN have wasted all their cash on Merlin?
Sorry RN, bit provocative. But don't we have some joined-up ideas about common procurement across the military? Surely it must be more cost effective to find a common solution rather than buy different kit for the RN.
