CSAR...Why not?
This question has been triggered by a comment on another thread; SAR is soon to be civilianised in UK, much lamented by some on this forum despite the fact that in many (most?) countries SAR has always been a civilian task. Yet we've never had CSAR capability, there's been no serious call or apparent interest in it. Why not? Surely given the present threats, this would be the most useful capability. And yes, I know there's no money but this long predates the present ££mess.
