Agree'd
The Tech issue is now wether the CH47 can get a folding rotor. (I would sugest if it was feasible it would have been done already)
Or Wether we get a Proven capability in the Merlin.
Given our history of specialised Chinooks I would sugest Merlin would probably be the result. However if/when the folding rotor hub is perfected it should be included in all UK Chinooks.
