I forgot to include the 378's as being capable of operating the HH-60. The main shipboard helo is the HH-65, followed by the MH-68. You'll need to look at the USCG page to find the homepors for the 378's and 270's - compare those locations with the USCG Air Stations. 10 of the 378's are stationed in the Pacific, and only two in the Atlantic. All of the 270's and most of the 210's are home ported on the Atlantic or Gulf coast. The simple truth is that there are more HH-65's (95 total) than there are HH-60's (42 total). The HH-65 Air Stations tend to be closer to the major homeports for the cutters. For example, there are four 378' WHEC stationed at Alameda, and Air Staion San francisco has several HH-65's.
