Why no low tech helicopters for Afganistan?

We keep hearing about the lack of helicopters for the war in Afganistan. Isn’t this due to us developing costly and time consuming choppers like the Merlin.
So shouldn’t we develop a low tech chopper, a T34 for the skies if you like. Rugged enougth to do the job but cheap enougth to reproduce in large quantities?
