This photo suggests the helicopter has just two non-folding blades, rather than a larger number of blades, that fold for storage.
Did the Frigates have a hanger?
The Beartrap (helicopter device) system allowed large Sea King helicopters to land on relatively small vessels, even in bad weather. The article says this was the first helicopter to be designed to land on Frigate sized vessels. So, presumably it predates the beartrip system? So, how well did these helicopters handle bad weather?
