NH-90 and S-92 are also part of the competition as well, though the Norwegians are spoilt for choice, bar the S-92, Eurocopter or AW be a win win situ.
Interestingly how the Norway SAR framework works, as its the mil a/c but the actual ops funded by the Ministry of Justice.
Best of luck to the winning team.
