SH will be operated by the USN into the 2040's. It is not bleeding edge like the F-35 with all the associated issues, but it is far from obsolete.

I would agree with the number, depending on squadron size it leaves very little room for error.
The SH is pretty much positioned as a secondary naval aircraft going forward. Its a limited add on aircraft and its on the far side in terms of the obsolete cycle.
