Indian Ocean (Apr. 20, 2004) - Two SH-60F Seahawks assigned to the
"Chargers" of Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron Fourteen (HS-14) come
in for a landing on the flight deck of the aircraft carrier USS Kitty
Hawk (CV 63). The Seahawk is a twin-engine helicopter used for
anti-submarine warfare, search and rescue, anti-ship warfare, vertical
replenishment, and special operations. Currently under way in the 7th
Fleet area of responsibility (AOR), Kitty Hawk is the Navy's oldest
aircraft carrier, and one of the first of the modern "super carriers,"
commissioned in 1961. U.S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate Airman Bo
