When in doubt buy American - US-made Seahawks.

Back in 2006 I worked for a company that was directly impacted by the decision to go Euro.

I can't go into details but a lot was said at the time but it all fell on deaf ears.
Isn't it funny how things turn out? - I wish I could convey how how happy I am about this.

"Australia's navy already operates 24 MH-60R Seahawks based at HMAS Albatross, near Nowra, and this next purchase would mean a common fleet of 36 aircraft."

This all makes a lot more sense now and they should compliment our new Nuclear subs quite nicely.
