Hang on, let me get my popcorn, this is getting good!
P8A is a compromise because it's wing is not optimised for low level ops, it will have to deploy sonar buoys from higher altitude, it's doesn't have a MAD and only 2 engines (although is less of a compromise).
Surely a wing designed for low level ops would then be poor at long range/high level ops...
And I doubt your credibility is doing very well when you're making statements based on MPA designed pre-2000... Perhaps nowadays we should be looking at different tactics for finding and tracking metal objects at sea...
