SARCO, it's just another box in the aircraft and another aerial on the tail, that fact it is digital instead of analogue doesn't really matter, it will just be routed through the station box. The Mk3A already has 3 multiband radios - it's about time this fit was added to the Mk 3s as well. Are you sure that the 92 won't have HF? Since the ARCC have operational control of the CG helos it seems odd that this has slipped through the net.
I know their sat tracker isn't compatible with the RCS - again we are expecting to have one fitted (RCS compatible though) in the near future.
Helinut - absolutely right on all counts
