I think that's what is in mind in the bigger plan for the future of NPAS.

With the civil aid type jobs in winter and the coastline & hill rescues, supplementary to the Valley unit, there will also be a very useful unit in close proximity to Liverpool and Manchester for any firearms troop lift type jobs that may occur throughout the region. Likewise for the North East with the 145 in host force land. Para military Ops as seen in Europe may well be coming our way!

Despite the views of others, the snowball that we know as NPAS seems to keep on rolling. 145 redistribution, fixed wing, drones/quadrocopters, integrated air ambulance tasking, para military capabilities, it all seems to be a policy of you have to spend in order to save.
