I just got "volunteered" for MH-60R's (HSM San Diego) and I'm trying to get excited about it by trying to absord as much info on it as I can. HSL San Diego was my 5th choice. HS Japan and HS San Diego were my top choices but unfortuantely it just happened to be a selection week where they drafted every navy guy to go HSL/HSM. While I get the basics of where the MH-60R supposedly operates (the CIEV spheres of influence) how does it integrate both the HSL and HS missions ? I've seen a 60R during fleet fly-in and I got fly a 60B around and bring it back home course rules so I have a inkling of how it handles but after talking to a bunch of 60B guys, the only upgrade seems to be the glass cockpit. Otherwise, it seems like the majority of 60R missions is still flying the command and control/surveillance projection missions. Not a big fan of those missions but hey, what can you do ?
