    A flight deck crew member in a yellow safety vest is directing a military helicopter during takeoff or landing operations on a naval vessel's flight deck. The helicopter, appearing to be an MH-60 Seahawk variant, is hovering just above the deck with its landing lights illuminated. The operation is taking place under overcast, hazy conditions at sea.
    A military helicopter, identified as aircraft number '10', is on the deck of a naval vessel with its rotors spinning. A deck crew member is crouched near the landing gear, appearing to handle tie-down chains securing the aircraft to the wet flight deck. The overcast, misty conditions suggest operations at sea in poor weather.
    A military helicopter, appearing to be a Sikorsky MH-60 Seahawk, is being refueled on the flight deck of a naval vessel while its rotors are still spinning. Two deck crew members in protective gear and color-coded jerseys are managing the fueling hose, with one holding a fire extinguisher as a safety precaution. Additional personnel in yellow safety vests are visible in the background near the ship's superstructure.
