Ah... but Ireland isn't just SAR... It's SAR and HEMS, which doesn't have the alleviations UK has. Then, when all of the wide-ranging requirements have to be embodied on a single type, there will be clear blue water between a 92 and a 189. And is a 189 faster than a 92 when you hang sensors and hoists of it? errr, no.
