Plus they should have good operating site flexibility.

It is a long long time ago, but IIRC it was the RN themselves who agreed to ditch the requirement for operating site flex, assuming you're talking about SHAR operating from temporary sites ashore. About 1993 I reckon. They had a landing aid for just such ops and decided to scrap it to save money.
