With the view to marinisation,from what i understand the US 64's came dry assembled,when Wastelands got hold of it they assembled wet with jointing compound, which added a fair amount of weight.Also Wastelands (I like that name) also had to devise a head folding kit for shipbourne use,this question being raised by a SGT in a Westlands intro to the Army.
I dread to think of what problems these horrendously expensive aircraft will have with corrosion at sea,especially with DLO in such strife with money.
However, the way we currently seem to be getting to and from any hotspots and waiting around to do anything, it would seem that marinisation of WAH 64D is the prudent thing to do.
