I always though the Lynx HMA8s were retire prematurely.

A terrible accident in Malaysia the other day.

The Malaysian Navy were practicing a flypast for the anniversary of their setting up when 2 helicopters collided with all 10 crew and passengers were lost in the Fennec and AW139.

Apart from the very sad loss of life, in terms of the Malaysian Navy air component this is quite a loss. They have a strength of 6 Super Lynx 300 (that are getting on), 4 (now 3) Fennec and 1 AW-139 (now 0 with 3 to be delivered).
