Any chance of western based helis with Babar class?

IMO Leonardo should have solid chances with babar class instead of Chinese

confirmed with my friend that the deck CAN accommodate a 10T helo, however, the problem is that it cant accommodate long helicopters.

He was an XO aboard TCG Büyükada, with two visits to Karachi under his belt.

So we are looking at Z-9D's to be put on these ships ?

dont discount the Merlin just yet, nor should you discount the Wildcat, what i will say is the merlin, if chosen, would be the wiser choice, the Wildcat is more to chase the submarine whereas the merlin is to find it, the wildcat also cannot carry a dipping sonar and sonobouys, it has to be either or.

Don't think the merlin is flying off these ships.
