I've been loving sea kings ever since I was a kid.
Too bad the Belgian army is replacing theirs.
Koksijde base now has several Westland Sea King Mk.48 and Alouette III helicopters, but they're all gonna be replaced with NHI NH90's.
Guess helicopters are a sensitive subject over here since the Agusta affair ;)

Here I just had a look on wikipedia :D
Apparantly they got an article on it.
It was a big scandal in which the socialist party had
accepted money from Agusta, so the belgian army would
purchase their helicopters:

That's because things are pretty much back to normal in Bosnia now - all British Troops have left the country.
