Hmmm; maybe I asked an embarrassing question in post #13!
Just guessing, but MRH90 (and Tiger) perhaps around 20 times the unit cost of Huey II and double the cost of Blackhawk UH-60M.
See this link for an interesting analysis of helo shipboard operations: Air Power Australia Analyses
Sea State 4 seems common in Australian waters so how will the MRH90 fare on the LPDs?

So MRH-90 passed its in-depth sea & shipboard trials with flying colors... before the engines started crapping out.
