    A wet naval vessel flight deck is shown at sea under overcast, rainy conditions. A large military helicopter, consistent with an MH-60 Seahawk, is parked on the deck, while a smaller unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), consistent with an MQ-8 Fire Scout, is airborne off the stern. The ship appears to be underway, as evidenced by the visible wake trailing behind.
