Description A U.S. Navy Sikorsky SH-3D Sea King (BuNo 152695) from Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron 11 (HS-11) "Sub Seekers" is loaded aboard the aircraft carrier USS Intrepid (CVS-11) at Naval Air Station Quonset Point, Rhode Island (USA). HS-11 was assigned to Carrier Anti-Submarine Air Group 56 (CVSG-56) aboard the Intrepid for a deployment to the Mediterranen Sea from 24 November 1972 to 4 May 1973. Note that the helicopter wears a large 2-digit squadron number on the fuselage, as it was used until 1969. The later 3-digit number is only painted below the cockpit.
