Jknife - if there wasn't better kit out there than the stuff we use in the military I would be very surprised and the S92 has , I am assured, a very capable autopilot/FPC/FCS/FMS.
My only chip is when people state, without correct up to date information, what current military SAR capability is and then in the same sentence claim the same capability for civvy SAR.
Your comment about radar is typical - unless you have operated with our 330 degree radar and seen it's advantages (yes it would be nice to see ahead as well but clearing turns are simple and quick) and tried IMC letdowns to cliffs with awkward winds, you will not understand the argument.
I still haven't seen a reply reference CAA clearance to operate IMC below MSA.
