I didn't notice this when I first posted the above pic. But this LPD-17 class ship has 3 AH-1W's on its deck along with a UH-1N.
Besides observing that it has room for a few more helicopters, it must be noted that this is the perfect setup for Command, Control, Attack and Interdiction (CCAI) of boats in the littorals.
Add to it the Boat Companies that these ships carry and you have a mini-ARG setup to control large swaths of coast line.

The most pro-active force in the fleet.
