From a practical stand point the switching from the Taipan saves a lot of money The UH-60 is used by RAN and AR so thats savings The UH-60 uses the same engine as the AH-64. The GE700 used on the NH-90 but its not the standard engine There is a lot of practical benefits to switching to the UH-60

The GE700 used on the NH-90 but its not the standard engine The US is closer than the EU, so getting service is much faster There is a lot of practical benefits to switching to the UH-60 Now whats odd is that Taipan was locally made in AU so odd that they didnt or couldn't fix its issues

@brexitnow4078 The problem with AU and NH-90 was distance Most of the NH-90 customers in the EU hand little problems with it because they were right there and getting problems fixed was relatively easy AU had to ship the NH-90 and Tigr to EU for work which was massive pain in the ass because they had to be broken down for transport The US also had that issue but with the newer models of the AH-64 and UH-60 they added the USN and RAF folding mechanisms they use for for ship borne storage which makes transport easier and simple The newer UH-60s has options that NH-90 doesnt have if NH-90 really wanted to compete with the black hawk, they need to add the same or better options

@hermes6910 Thats the irony The UH-60 has been successively upgrading from UH-60A to UH-60M Whereas the MRH-90 ? The UH-60 aerial refueling kit is available for export customers as well as the External Stores Support System for weapons or fuel The UH-60 is older but has more options than the NH-90

@manuelmamann5035 The NH-90 has problem with Germany, AU , the Dutch and others The irony of the situation is that AgustaWestland AW101 could solve the problems but it wasnt offered

@chickenfishhybrid44 Even when you build under license you can make changes to it airframe The Indian Su-30MKI is baseline Su-30 built underline but with dozens and dozens of changes they have made over the years its doable,

@hermes6910 But it doesnt have the aerial refueling kit option like the UH-60 which means it needs a place to refuel where the UH-60 just needs a tanker The UH-60 already has weapon options whereas the NH-90 would have to go through the process of testing and certifying The NH-90 hasnt had the investment that UH-60 has had Its been around since 1995 but hasn't been upgraded The UH-60M isnt just an upgrade, its new built airframe. Customers can option for upgrading their airframes or buying new built Thats funny part the NH-90 has made a lot claims he NH90 is also much more stealth than the blackhawk. Noise / IR / Radar ! And if you must have a crash... you prefer to be in the NH90 frame. Despite that fact It can't unseat the UH-60 AR is switching Belgium is switching from the TTH to H145M

@manuelmamann5035 Wrong the NH 90 has no aerial refueling capability. You dont even know what we are talking. Aerial refueling capability is distinguishing on helo. its literally a massive sore thumb that sticks No helo has it integrated.

@manuelmamann5035 Besides your broken english, its clear you have no idea what you are talking about

@manuelmamann5035 The NH-90 is simple old news buddy Secondly ARS is not simply added, thats major modification which to date no one has opted for

@IdeYuji No you haven't Aerial refueling are conducted at 5000 ft on up At that height helo profles look the same You mistook a EC725 for NH-90 Other nations conduct interoperation training all the time
