One MH-65 Dolphin (larger) and two smaller rotary-winged UAVs, so probably room for 2 if these not carried

Indeed, but no MH-6s and they don’t have the range from land

The thought seems to be that they are preparing to board a Venezuelan "blockade runner", currently off Ireland somewhere. A USN P-8 from Mildenhall has headed towards SW Ireland this afternoon. The aircraft at Fairford include MH-47s, MH-60s, and V-22s. AC-130s at Mildenhall.
