Since the Air Force already operates over 100 HH-60G's and UH-60L's (though I think all of the L's eventually got converted to G's?) a version of the H-60 seems the way to go. Even though I realize that the USAF treats its helicopter pilots badly, what's the idea with used birds? New birds start with 0 hours TSN.
I smell shennanigans, and I also smell a few other things.
