I would expect the existing MRH-90 to continue their current role in the RAN. I think we are keeping the fleet of MRH-90, for now.

The navy operates 6, its still to be determined wether these romeos are replace the MRH-90, but considering its a pretty large excess Romeo's and MRH-90 being transferred to army. Its not confirmed but seem everyone believes the navy will be transferring them to army under sea-1000
