USAF UH-1N replaced by UH-60L

The USAF are going ahead with replacing the entire fleet of UH-1N with retired army UH-60A airframes that will be upgraded to UH-60L standard at Corpus Christi Army Aviatîon Depot at estimated cost of $6.5 million per airframe.

On another note I forgot that the USAF canned the CVLSP last year as remembered seeing AW proposal for an AW139M as missile Support and VIP replacement of the UH-1N fleet. When I was at Heli Expo 2011 , I saw the AW139M (now the National Security Demonstrator) proposed demonstrator for the CVLSP. I also have a few large promotional posters from AW of the 139 in missile support and VIP - missions and colours from the show as well.

Cheers and any thoughts ?
