Perfect? Really?

Are there any helicopters actually small enough to land on that thing?

Are there any helicopters actually small enough to land on that thing? Yep. By way of contrast, our Freedom Class LCS is about 4000 short tons, and has a compliment of a MH-60S and a Fire Scout

They are decommissioning a lot of the lcs class.
Absolute failure in many respects.
