Do ships of the LPD 17 San Antonio class have permanently embarked aircraft?

0

No, the ships do not have aircraft permanently assigned. They may embark or cross-deck aircraft and/or personnel from the large-deck amphibious ships within Expeditionary Strike Group, but only temporarily to support specific mission requirements. However, the ships do have permanently assigned personnel in their Air Departments for handling and fueling aircraft.
