Mk4, Mk5 and new Mk6?

As an outsider not knowing too much about Chinooks could someone explain why that at the end of this cunning plan we will still end up with a mixed fleet of three different models whilst all of our major allies are standardising (re-builds and new buys) on just one, the model F. Future MoD cock-up and overspend by trying to operate fleets within fleets with short-term saving and massive future bill?
