Quick missions for MH60 - useless

Why not adding a support ship with landing pad automatically for a quick mission with MH60? Without the ability to land and rearm, its doomed.
Pity...

Anyone can edit the QM databases to change with friendly and hostile platforms could be selected (at random) as well as neutrals. So for the MH-60 missions you just make sure that there is always an allied U.S. FFG/DDG in the mission to land on.

I'm sort of surprised the community hasn't taken a crack at it with all of the fantastic community-created DB tools that are out there.

Well, not anyone knows how...
And if its so simple, why not adding this to 1.04 list?

BTW
is there a way to open a quick mission in the editor?
i have a save from a quick mission but it wont let me open it, and it doesnt appear in the import list.

Quick missions are "instant-created" based on a random number (the "Seed"), therefore you can't edit those missions but you can edit the base upon which they are created, which means you have to edit the database (which I guess is the qmplatforms.eqd file) tho I'm not sure if our available tools can handle that database. If thats the case then a quick fix from SCS might be the only way to go (or inclusion in the next patch).
