Great!

As far as the dipping sonar, TLAM Strike mentioned to me that the FFG7 in game carries 2 LAMPS III helos which don't employ the dipping sonar (I.E. it's not the same helicopter as the user flyable one in the game). I'm not sure if this is accurate, at a quick glance FAS.org says that the LAMPSIII carried by the FFG7 has an AQS-18A dipping sonar. That's an older helicopter, the MH60R is even newer and it also has dipping sonar.

I seem to remember that there was a version without the MAD sensor - and possibly also one without a dipping sonar, though I'm not too sure about that.

Having MAD data linked would be nice too.

I *think* it is - as part of the datalink contact provided from the helicopter as an ai platform. (Meaning not only your helicopter would give a mad contact.)
