From what I have read over quite a while it seems that the Air Force has a pretty clear preference for the C-27J for the FWSAR role; I suspect part of the reason is that the plane is also a pretty capable transport and could well supplement the new Herc fleet for transport missions within Canada. After all, the Jercs we are buying will replace just over half the Herc E/H fleet we had several years ago (with the remaining Es devoted now mainly to SAR). I assume that as the Jercs arrive the Hs will take over the SAR role from the Es until the FWSAR aircraft arrives
