I don't know about that. I love the Twin Otters and I hope we get if not a life extension then a replacement of the capability. These are the things we simply want.
I deal with an air force commander. The commander of 1 Canadian Air Division wears multiple hats. He works for me as the joint force air component commander, and so when I have a requirement, I define an effect. We call it an RFE, or a request for effect. He determines the platform that's suitable to go forward to do this. So in the same vein, if we were looking at the Arctic and we needed more of something, we would describe an effect, not an airframe. We describe a capability or a niche that needs to be performed, and they conduct the analysis and determine what's necessary.
As to the future of the Twin Otter, I'm not certain about.
