Similar to operate doesn't mean you don't need all new equipment. A majority of ground support equipment is unique to these types af aircraft. Flight simulators, ground school training, flight manuals, and on and on are all unique. DND has an entire engineering support staff for each aircraft type.
Just because they look and act similar does not mean there is a cost savings.
They may look similar but its like saying a 1969 Camaro and a 2010 Camaro are the same car.
