Australia grounded the EU military aircraft and switched to the United States. Was it a coincidence or a conspiracy?There are two points
The aftermath of the nuclear submarine programs of the United States, Britain and Australia has not yet settled, and Australia has suddenly grounded the EU's MRH-90 multi-purpose helicopter. Is it a coincidence or a conspiracy? Who is the most injured behind?
According to the latest media reports, Australia suddenly took a shot at 47 MRH-90 helicopters purchased from the European Union and switched to the US "Sea Hawk" helicopters.
The new purchase order is for 12 "Seahawk" helicopters and ancillary equipment, with a total price of up to 1.3 billion Australian dollars. For the EU, this is another major blow after the French-Australian order for conventionally powered submarines was "pryed".
The reason given by Australia is that the routine maintenance and IT support systems of these helicopters cannot conceal the needs of the National Defense Forces. However, the European Union does not approve of this statement, because since it entered service in 2007, the Australian Navy has consistently claimed that it can meet emerging needs.
The Australian Navy also claims that the MRH-90 helicopter is used to replace the "Black Hawk" and "Sea King" helicopters. It has more built-in safety features, can provide more efficient maintenance, and can meet and exceed the requirements of the Australian Defence Force. So far, the official website of the Australian Navy still retains the relevant description.

According to media reports, Australia may have removed parts of a malfunctioning aircraft during helicopter maintenance to repair another aircraft, which may cause more malfunctions. However, European military industry experts believe that the modules are universal, even if they are removed and replaced with new ones. There is a problem.
What's more, Australia's 47 helicopters are not a one-time purchase. Why have they only suddenly announced the grounding? European media speculated that this may be a premeditated smear operation.
Comprehensively comparing the performance of the two helicopters, there is almost no reason to abandon the more advanced MRH-90 multi-purpose helicopter, and instead use the American "Seahawk" helicopter.

Some analysts believe that based on the repurchase order given by Australia, it is very unlikely that the performance of the MRH-90 is inferior to that of the US "Seahawk" helicopter. More likely, the grounding and new purchase orders are part of the "Okus" cooperation plan.
As analyzed in an earlier article in this column, the nuclear submarine cooperation in the "Okus" of the United States, Britain and Australia is not simply the transfer of nuclear submarine technology, but the Americanization of the entire Australian naval system. Australia will continue to provide huge amounts to the US arms dealers. Navy budget.
It is worth noting that even if it is necessary to pay the first $1.3 billion "protection fee" to the United States, it does not necessarily have to be grounded for mature helicopters that have served in the Australian Navy for many years. After all, these 47 MRH-90s cost nearly 37. Billion Australian dollars. For this reason, Pat, assistant to the shadow secretary of defense of Australia, denounced that this was a waste of taxpayers' money.

Why must it be grounded?
Regarding grounding and switching to American aircraft, there are two main points of analysis.
On the one hand, the United States needs to fully "take over" Australia's national defense construction, especially the naval construction. All equipment must be Americanized, which can realize the interconnection and interoperability of equipment and is also a legal channel to send "protection fees" to the United States.
On the other hand, the European Union's awareness of strategic autonomy is becoming stronger and stronger. In addition to increasing its military presence in Europe, the United States must also guard against the European Union and the United States' competitive influence in other regions. It is reasonable to eliminate the threat posed by the European Union in advance.
If the above inference holds true, it will be another American attack on the European Union. Recalling the nuclear submarine incident in which the United States, Britain and Australia jointly "stabbed" France in the back some time ago, for a time the entire European Union was almost the same enemy, and the European Union had a chance to get rid of the control of the United States in one fell swoop.

Unexpectedly, Biden used only one video call to directly "hold" Macron, and then Blincoln went to France to reassure him, and the EU immediately died down.
From the perspective of the United States, since the EU is so promising, there is no need to be polite. Any order that enhances the influence of the EU may become the object of deterrence. In addition, Indonesia and Italy have large orders for 8 frigates, and France has several military orders in India. Will Biden let it go? We still need to observe.
