Interesting stuff.
Yeah, that is quite comprehensive indeed. Thanks for posting that!
That's interesting how the idea to shape MH-60R/MH-60S squadron for the
carrier strike group evolves. First I've heard about two squadrons, ten
aicraft each. Newer option is a 12-a/c HSM with "Romeos" and an 8-a/c
HSC with "Sierras". Of course, not all the helos are going to stay on
the carrier - some of these may be distributed among other ships of the
group.
With Vikings gone, and Hornets occupied with many other tasks, Seahawks
become the most important ASuW asset now...
Best regards,
Jacek
