Does the opportunity to create a military-spec A320, using a 30-40 unit buy by the French/Germans for a MMA, bring further opportunities into play ? Such as for AEW, ESM, etc ? After all once the basic airframe & systems militarisation launch costs have been carried, then role-specific costs become a lesser inhibitor.
(I'm not sure I buy all the hype about shifting operators out of the aircraft for these sorts of things. Bandwidth is a scarce commodity, even in a Starlink world.)
