Summary edit

Description
English: A U.S. Navy MH-60S with the Blackjacks of Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 21, hovers above the flight deck of the future amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6) during the first flight operations of her transit, July 11, 2014. America is carrying Marines and Sailors from the Special Purpose Marine Air Ground Task Force South on her transit around the South America. The America-class amphibious assault ship represents the Navy-Marine Corps' emphasis on increasing the aviation capacity of future big-deck amphibious assault ships in order to accommodate the next generation of rotary wing and VSTOL (vertical/short takeoff and landing) aircraft, such as the MV-22 Osprey and F-35B Joint Strike Fighter, adding a significant boost to the speed and agility of our maritime forces.
