    USS SAIPAN (Nov. 6, 2006) - HM-53E Sea Dragon helicopters from Helicopter Mine Countermeasure Squadron (HM) 15 demonstrate the mine sweeping capabilities of the Navy's MK-105 Magnetic Influence System, better known as the "sled," during a mine countermeasure training event in the Arabian Gulf in support of Maritime Security Operations (MSO). MSO help set the conditions for security and stability in the maritime environment, as well as complement the counter-terrorism and security efforts of regional nations. These operations deny international terrorists use of the maritime environment as a venue for attack or to transport personnel, weapons or other material.
