MH-60 sonobouy loadout

Hi, I'm very new to DW. I have been trying my hand at the FFG. Couple questions: 1) Is there a way to change the sonobouy loadout on the helo before it leaves your own ship? I'm practicing on the Gulf Breakout scenario and would to replace all those VLADs with DIFARS/ DICASS for the shallow waters.
2) Can the helicopter drop every single sonobouy on board and still monitor? What I mean is I understand that the number of grams is limited but if a single helicopter drops 12 or 16 sonobouys will all those sonobouys still be able to listen even if I cannot dedicated a gram/grams to every single one? Will they still be able to go "hot" if I don't have a gram dedicated to it at that moment?

I am using the 1.04 patch and that 3.08 modification thingy. Great game - I like the combination of technology, tactics, and the patience required to watch a your startegy unfold (or fold up).
