Unfortunately the Blackhawk was never reengined or upgraded, as requested many years ago.DMO promised the MRH90. Underpowered for Afghanistan.
Note Huey 2 being used extensively by US State Department as well as upgraded S61.Also Turbo Caribou.
Obviously such elegant and cost effective solutions are alien to those who frequent Russel Hill
and dream of their bloated taxpayer retirement package.
