Again, the helicopter in question - currently a Sikorsky Sea King - when used as Marine 1 - has FAR different operational limitations than when used in war or conflict."It ain't necessarily so

than the one that is currently used as Marine 1? Interesting.
The Sikorski Helicopters (Sea King or White Knight) are FAR MORE capable than the role they play as Marine One. First, when Marine 1 flies, there are generally 2 other identical helicopters (or as many as 4 more) that fly with it in a "shell game", to confuse anybody who may wish to target it, because it does fly relatively low and slow, compared to Air Force One. That's a logistical challenge, because you certainly don't want them crashing into each other in bad weather.
It's not the CAPABILITY of the aircraft - it's the OPERATIONAL LIMITATIONS in its role as Marine One, carrying POTUS.

No. Absolutely not. But you're REALLY REALLY not getting it.
