See on nüüd jälle üks sihuke otsus, mis paneb hambaid kiristama
Kuna austraallastel juhtus nende NH90 Taipan kopteriga miskine õnnetus (mis esialgsetel andmetel oli hoopiski piloodi viga, mitte kopteri puudujääk), otsustati need rivist välja arvata ja selmet Ukrainale anda, tükkideks lõigata ja maha matta.

NH90 üle pole ükski riik õnnelik, kõige vähem on seda häda ukrainale kaela vaja, metallipurustaja ongi ainuvõimalik koht kuhu see sitanikerdis sobib.
Soomlased ka oma 20tk metalli kokkuostu tassinud? Sakslased, prantslased, hollandlased...? Miks nad "lollid" neid ostavad?
Jama on nendega küll ja veel - Soomes kasutusel olevate lennutund on suurusjärgus 16000 €, mis on ikka jõle kirves lendava autobussi jaoks. Lisaks oli algselt kopterite saamisega pikki viivitusi ja tootjad pidid trahve maksma. Lisaks on nende tehniline hooldus pikk ja kallis, mille tõttu on kasutada võimalik oluliselt vähem masinaid kui alguses loodeti.
Õnnetuste nimekiri Wiki andmetel on erakordselt lühike ja kolm suuremat on seotud austraallastega. Äkki neil on mingid regionaalsed iseärasused?
From 2008 there have been reports at least 11 accidents involving NH90 of various types.[263]
Notable accidents
In April 2010, an Australian MRH-90 suffered a single engine failure near Adelaide, landing safely at RAAF Base Edinburgh[64] Australia grounded their MRH-90 fleet due to engine issues.[65] The cause of the failure was determined to be contact between the compressor blade and the engine casing; new preventative inspections were enacted and flights resumed in July 2010.[67] One factor stated for the engine failure was complications relating to an inflight engine restart.[49]
In March 2023, an Australian MRH-90 with ten aboard experienced an engine failure and ditched in Jervis Bay with everyone surviving. The helicopter's flotation system was deployed, allowing it to float, and it was towed onto a nearby beach.[49]
In July 2023, an Australian MRH-90 crashed at night during Exercise Talisman Sabre off the coast of Hamilton Island, Queensland, with the loss of its four crew.[91][92] Parts of the airframe and human remains were found in a debris field[vague] in 40 meters of water, consistent with a catastrophic impact. The cause is under investigation as of late 2023.[90]
