[edit] Summary

Description

Three Sikorsky SH-3A Sea King helicopters from helicopter anti-submarine squadron HS-6 Indians, flying over the aircraft carrier USS Kearsarge (CVS-33). HS-6 was assigned to Carrier Anti-submarine Air Group 53 (CVSG-53). The picture was taken after the 1962 FRAM-modernisation, but the carrier still carries the SPS-8A radar. Also, the Sea Kings are not yet painted in the grey/white scheme, the date is therefore probably 1962–1964.
