Report on NH90 deployment in Afghanistan. At least an operational deployment for real will advance the identifying and sorting out of problems with this aircraft.
Good on the Italians for doing this. They are reported to be generally pleased with the aircraft. Spares shortages shouldn't happen, but not unheard of with a new deployment, so hopefully all will learn lessons.
