The objective of the report is to identify limitations to Coast Guard ship-helicopter (ship/helo) operations on WMEC and WHEC class vessels, and to study possible ways to remove these limitations to increase ship/helo utilization. A systems analysis technique was used to identify and describe the interrelationships among the system elements which affect ship/helo operations. Inherent limitations of ships and helicopters are described, as well as possible missions and modes of combined operations. Special consideration is given to the HARPOON, BEARTRAP, and SHAG helicopter rapid-securing and release systems. (Modified author abstract)
