Assuming that the answer had to be a Lynx or at least a Westland type (for all of the political/industrial/employment reasons) then what would you experts (and I mean that without a trace of sarcasm) have done differently?
Changed the rotor head and AFCS rather than the monolithic tailboom?
Lengthened the tailboom and increased the length of the MRBs?
Stretched the cabin (as on the Lynx 3 and civvy Lynx - the Type 606)?
Fitted an AW139 type nose gear?
Procured Super Lynx 300 for the RN for the SCMR part of the requirement, and an AW139 derivative for the Army's BLUH requirement?
