    A U.S. Navy MH-60S with the Blackjacks of Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 21, conducts nighttime flying operations aboard the future amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6) 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 American continent. The America-class amphibious assault ship represents the Navy’s 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.
