'The Lemon of all Lemons'
Well, if you bother to actually research, you will find that the real problems have all been solved.
All systems now work fine, and the SeaSprite has a temporary flight clearance because it now meets all of the contracted requirements.
This last issue is simply whether the RAAF will pay for the changes in the flight-control software that are required by the changes in certification requirements that have been made in the last couple of years... after the flight-control software was written, verified, and tested.
The RAAF does not want to pay the 35million $Aus for the last-minute changes... they want Kaman to eat the bill for customer-required changes in system requirements that have nothing to do with what Kaman contracted to provide.
