Modular aircraft systems

Hi BluenGreen.

The RAN was removing/reinstalling gear in Sea Kings and Seahawks that was designed to remain permanently installed.

A huge range of modular systems is available worldwide for adaptation to many platforms. Consider the UH-60L DAP for example.

When we reconfigured the XM-21 weapon system for adaptation to Iroquois UH-1H airframes as required, it took us some months of searching in the US to find suitable cannon plugs, but we eventually acquired them.

The small ADF sure does need more versatility in its platforms and that only takes some outside the square thinking.
