Потому что транспортные и транспортно-боевые вертолёты реализуют 2-ю роль RAF,
то есть Air Mobility, и больше никто этим в Королевстве заниматься права не имеет.
А вот что официоз RAF пишет по поводу вертолётов огневой поддержки, которых в RAF нет:
Because attack helicopters in general, and land-based tactical missile systems in particular, have not always
proved to be as flexible as fixed-wing aircraft in conducting deep operations, air component commanders
should be supported where there are opportunities to attack lucrative conventional target sets. In these
circumstances, joint commanders can use land forces to manoeuvre against and fix enemy ground forces
(and provide targeting support) so that air power can attack before land forces close to contact. Land
commanders could achieve better operational level agility by allowing more flexible control over the position
of the fire support coordination line, but this in turn requires considerable confidence in friendly force
tracking capabilities. (c) RAF Air Publication 3000, 4th edition.
