Looks like a pregnant female of the last effort like this, I forget the name/designation.

Or maybe Cowomanche, or am I opening up to mass trolling now like J K Rowling?

I’ve got no idea eitherway but those semi-recessed munitions don’t look tremendously stealthy to me!

Another NH90 customer not happy. Interesting that it’s Sweden, given how hard they worked and how much money they paid to get the “high cabin” version when they could have just bought off-the-shelf Merlins that as standard are another three inches taller.

That’s Belgium, Norway, and Australia prematurely retiring theirs. And complaints from Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden. Not the best marketing for the helicopter of late.

Urghhhh....they're just going to be everywhere aren't they. Wouldn't mind if it wasn't *the* dullest looking lump available for future fast jet procurement. Even the Typhoon is marginally more interesting.

Incredibly capability upgrade for Czechia, it'd be like the UK buying the USS Enterprise (spaceship, not boat)

Two left to see, four to photograph. I'd best get cracking.

Was kind of hoping they'd use an NH90 photo for the "Merlin" just for a laugh...
