“The whole conversion was a great experience and an amazing opportunity,” newly qualified SENSO Leading Seaman Liam Carruthers told Navy Daily. “The instruction and guidance we received from the US Navy was excellent. They are solid operators and have so much experience with the Seahawk.”
The training comprised 150 hours of simulator, aircraft and ground events covering numerous missions, ranging from search and rescue and utility, to the primary missions of anti-submarine and anti-surface warfare.
