The Australian Minister of Defense has concluded a full examination of the Seasprite project. The helicoptes were grounded due to concerns over the reliability of the Seasprite's Automated Flight Control System.
The review paid particular attention to the reliability of the Flight Control System and its associated safety implications, and the ramifications to the Australian Naval aviation because the project is 6 years behind schedule.
The Australian Government has decided to continue with the Seasprite project, subject to satisfactory contract arrangements. The helicopter can return to flying after series of controlled steps are taken to assess the contractor's performance.
