QED

Of course, if you are going to spend circa half a billion marinising what you have, then you might as well spend that amount on brand spankers airframes for CHF.

If you only plan to marinise a handful of the 28 and save cost then why train up 2 RN sqns when the land SH element can be done by the existing crews from the RAF?

It's cheaper.....QED
