My comment
(a) Sikorsky SH-60 Seahawk
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikorsky_SH-60_Seahawk
(a member of the Sikorsky S-70 family; Introduced 1984; Status In production, in service)
(b) AgustaWestland AW159
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AgustaWestland_AW159
(First Flight 2009; Developed from Westland Super Lynx; Length: 15.24 m (50 ft);

* AgustaWestland is an Anglo-Italian helicopter design and manufacturing company, from merger of Augusta of Italy and Westland Helicopters of UK.
(c) AgustaWestland AW101
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AgustaWestland_AW101
(rebranded from EH101 in June 2007; Introduced 2000; Length: 22.81 m (74 ft 10 in))
(d) Lockheed P-3 Orion

Compare
Boeing P-8 Poseidon
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_P-8_Poseidon
(Introduced 2013 (projected))
(e) Oddly, this report only talks about hardware rather than software, which seems more important to me. As for comparison of helicopter (a to c) and fixed-wing aircraft (d) as the platform in anti-submarine warfare (ASW), I do not know.

Quote:

"At a Washington press conference on Wednesday, Chen said: 'uring my office call on Secretary Clinton this morning, she told me — she reiterated the US policy; that is, there is only one China in the world and Taiwan is part of China.'

"The conference was held jointly with Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Michael Mullen [, who] said: 'As General Chen said, Secretary Clinton repeated and I would only re-emphasize the United States policy supports a ‘one China’ policy. And I certainly share the view of the peaceful reunification of China.'
