CELEBES SEA (Dec. 17, 2014) An MQ-8B Fire Scout unmanned aircraft
system from the "Magicians" of Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron (HSM) 35, the Navy’s first composite expeditionary helicopter squadron, conducts flight operations aboard the littoral combat ship USS Fort Worth (LCS 3). Currently
on a 16-month rotational deployment in support of the Asia-Pacific Rebalance,
Fort Worth is a fast and agile warship tailor-made to patrol the region’s littorals
and work hull-to-hull with partner navies, providing 7th Fleet with the flexible
capabilities it needs now and in the future. (U.S. Navy video by Mass
