Further to my Australian Assault/Troop Transport proposal, what about a "Bushranger" variant armed similar to the Huey Bushrangers:
Fire-Power Unlimited Inc.
Sometimes called "Fpui!" - 'coz that's what happens down-range!
(OK, I made that up.
)
One of the failings for the H-34/Wessex family for ground force operations, & one of the reasons they lost out to the smaller UH-1 & Lynx, is their height.
While this makes them great for SAR & ASW type operations, it just makes them a bigger target & less stable on touch-down (too narrow for their height) during ground op's with no significant improvement in capacity or flexibility over smaller, lighter helo's like the UH-1 & Lynx.
Further development for naval, coast watch or coast guard type activities would be right up their alley, though.
However, in Whif World, if there were problems with the UH-1's & Lynx's development or production, then H-34/Wessex alternatives would be a logical move.
