Apples vs Lemons

Paul Kuhn, Chairman, President and CEO said, "... In fact, there is a significant history of safe operations for this aircraft type with the U.S. Navy and currently with several other naval services including the Royal New Zealand Navy."

Now that's just plain naughty. The USN, RNZN (and Egyptian & Polish) SH-2s are distinctly different machines to the SH-2G(A).

Among other things, the SH-2G(A) has a digital flight stabalisation system where all the others were analogue ie. software has a significantly greater flight critical role.

Happy with drawing the 'rich heritage' bow, provided significant differences are given their due weight.
