I'm 200% behind legitimate military security - and it pains me when security concerns are instead used to protect what is merely politically embarrassing, or when people quote security concerns when the question being asked is entirely innocuous. Not everything is, or needs to be, secret.

The role is obvious from the fit, and the requirement.

No-one's asking about tactics, parametrics, capabilities, equipment nor even operational basing.

Just which branch of the services will own and operate these aircraft - bought and paid for with taxpayers money.

Do you think for one moment that this is unknown because it's militarily sensitive, and won't be released when the squadron stands up?

What possible problem does this level of information pose?
