I have to say that the helicopter looks like a toy on that landing pad

I do have a respect for the crew of the Iranian frigate. It isn't a large ship and it has almost certainly completed the longest voyage it has ever done. The Atlantic is a very unforgiving sea and its also possible it faced some of the most difficult conditions it and its crew had ever faced. Yes it had a support ship, which would have been needed for fuel and supplies but there is no shame in that and if they had experienced a mechanical problem, they would have been very much on their own.

From a professional basis, full marks to them.
