Aft are F-35B, forward are CH-53 (dark with tail rotors) and MV-22 (light gray). Nose of an MH-60 is just visible aft of the white crane.

Cheers Geir, I think the Knighthawk's are a derivative of the Black Hawk. Some kind of upgraded version I think. Still looks like a Blackhawk though

Hi MattyBoy,

Thank you for your comments on both photos of USS AMERICA.
It was not easy to take photos today because of hazy weather. I am not sure what aircrafts that she has onboard at this time. This is according to Wikipedia: Aircraft carried:
AV-8B Harrier II
MV-22B Osprey
F-35B Lightning II
CH-53K Super Stallion
UH-1Y Venom
AH-1Z Viper
MH-60S Knighthawk

Brgds,
Geir

Nice one Geir. She looks great from this angle. Is that a Blackhawk? I thought they were all out of service now.
