How about one from left field - add this to the wish list..
Us are rumoured to be developing a gunship lite based on the C27J platform to increase their numbers of gunships....Hmmmmm
Despite what navs might tell you our C130H's have just about had it - too much time spent low level and airframes are just about cactus.
We don't have enough J's at the moment let alone crew. Training seems to be the problem - can not train enough crews fast enough both fron and back end.
One day when I am king we will buy off teh shelf US products as we seem to follow them into everythig these days and they at least keep spares on teh shelf.
