Just not up to their standards.

Or some one realised that the money could be useful elsewhere

Think the EH101 can do a better job. Seem to remember someone else having problems with NH90<s

I guess that after ordering a product over 21 years ago and this stil isn't completely delivered nor working according to your or their specifications, you sent it back. And you ask your money back and you look for an alternative.

MH-60 better fits the size!?
And yes NH90 seems a to be a nightmare for many operators.
Going back and forward to the industry for update, upgrades and modifications. And still doesn't live up to the expectations/promises and to expensive to operate. So Australia and Belgium and now Norway stop operating them even before they were fully operational

Can't fit a Merlin in their frigate hangars. MH-60, as Denmark has done, is the most logical option.

Will it be the RAF Puma replacement?

Funny
With the Norwagian, Australian and Belgium ones. 64 will be available on the second hand market . Maybe not UK but I can see other countries picking them up. The Dutch

I don't think it is even being considered as a Puma replacement?!
