    Marines and Sailors with Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 21 and Marine Operational Test and Evaluation Squadron 22, conduct nighttime flight operations with U.S. Navy MH-60S Seahawks and MV-22 Ospreys aboard the flight deck of the future amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6), July 12, 2014. America is currently transiting around South America on its way to the Western United States. America is the first of the America-class amphibious assault ships, which represents the Navy-Marine Corps’ emphasis on increasing the aviation capacity of future big-deck amphibious assault ships capable of accommodating the next generation rotary wing and V/STOL (vertical/ short takeoff and landing) aircraft such as the MV-22 Osprey and the F-35B Joint Strike Fighter.
