A white Merlin came over Blandford Forum today heading west, does anyone know which it was , it could have come from Yeovil or even Newquay
Yours hopefully

Can't be a Merlin ASaC.3 as that would conflict with the HC.3/HC.3A, could be an ASaC.4 (unless the HC.3s are becoming HC.4s when they're upgraded?)

Not determined yet chaps as with the competitive tender over the choice of system which ultimately rests with Lockheed Martin who are running it ie side mounted or searchwater type like current skasac7. As for naval merlin upgrade, they will eventually become mk4/4A although there will be interim mk4s is iMk4. Regards Ian u
