But!! If SARH is binned on cost grounds, it would surely put to bed the fanciful notion that civsar is cheaper than mil, n'est ce pas?
Nah, it just means the RAF will buy another 6 helicopters for £450 million and then de mod them to a simpler version! They'll then put them on a SAR unit where all the Kings horses and all the Kings men won't get them to work! It's the Humpty Dumpty Syndrome.

Anyway that's what they call value for money and being cost effective in the military!!! God it's great being a UK tax payer!
