New Cabs for USCG MH-60T's

Found this article announcing the arrival at USCG Elizabeth City ALC of the first new build cab for the USCG's MH-60T's. Anyone know if these will be new USCG serials or will they assume the previous identity ? https://news.lockheedmartin.com/2023-11-30-Sikorsky-Delivers-First-Replacement-MH-60T-Air...

My hunch is that the Italian aircraft will all be second hand G550 frames.
Five Peregrines (MC-55A)? I thought the order was for four and these are well into production/conversion? I could be mistaken.

Planned for 5, ordered 4 I believe, Mark.
