This has been a discussion since 2017 when Standard Horizon announced the 6500 radio that never went beyond the marketing announcement. Not it appears the Simrad and B&G have announced they are revealing their own AIS B class transmit/receive system housed in a VHF radio. MSRP about $1100. Due out in June 2019 (but apparently has seen a slight delay).
I read about it in Panbo. Here is the web site for Simrad.

Sounds like a fair price for an item combines both features.
Not sure when it will becoming to retail.
