	Sea Kings
		Sea Kings have been the workhorses of the fleet for over 40 years now, and have delivered excellent service for a large portion of that time.
		However, the sonar system is antiquated, and the Sea Kings are now somewhat of a weak link for the warships that carry them (in addition to their increasing unreliability).
		The government has selected the new Sikorsky H-92 to replace the Sea King, but these helicopters must be converted for use off warships and will not be ready until 2008 at the earliest.
