Z-18 would be an ideal replacement for the venerable the SH-3 Sea King. The latter has served long past its shelf life, and in the coming years would be in need to be completely replaced.
There is no such thing as "Shelf Life" for an aircraft. It is not a consumable item.
PN never operated the SH-3.
