To reduce its storage footprint, the MH-60 features:

• Folding main rotor blades

• A folding tail pylon

• Compact landing gear configuration
  These fold-up mechanisms allow the aircraft to be quickly stowed inside ship hangars on destroyers, cruisers, and frigates.

In addition to its maritime design, the MH-60 is equipped with an integrated self-defense suite, similar to the latest U.S. Army UH-60 Black Hawk variants. This system typically includes:

• Radar warning receivers (RWR)

• Missile approach warning systems (MAWS)

• Infrared countermeasures

• Chaff and flare dispensers

These defensive systems enhance survivability in high-threat environments, allowing the Seahawk to conduct anti-submarine warfare (ASW), anti-surface warfare (ASuW), search and rescue, and special operations support while operating far from shore.

Built for the sea, hardened for combat — the MH-60 remains one of the most versatile naval helicopters in the world.
