  do our RSN consider having UAVs onboard LST so they can performs recon operations other than relying on our Fokker50 or E2C...
  I dun mean our MPA n E2C are not good... just that with our navy having UAVs may help in our RSN fighting capabilities...

  VTOL UAV as launch platform, has been operational for quite a number of years and I believe still operational in Japan navy?

  I think Japanese is looking at the Northrop Grumman's Fire Scout as replacements for their DASH?
