UH-60A Black Hawk
Operator: 4th Aviation
Location: Butts Army Airfield, Fort Carson, Colorado (USA)
Timeframe: 1991-1993
Personal Interest:
During my tour of duty at Fort Carson, 4th Aviation had completely transitioned the medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) mission to the UH-60A Black Hawk from the venerable UH-1H Iroquois, and was in the process of transitioning the Air Cavalry mission. At least one Black Hawk was equipped with an AN/ALQ-151(V)2 Quick Fix system to locate and jam enemy communications. This model represents a UH-60A equipped for the MEDEVAC mission.
The U.S. military first used the UH-60A in combat during Operation Urgent Fury (invasion of Grenada) in 1983, and again in Operation Just Cause (invasion of Panama) in 1989. Although I had always known I would join the US Air Force, these events impressed upon my the value of Army Aviation and joint service operations.
U.S. Army UH-60 helicopters conducted many air assault and support missions during Operation Enduring Freedom (invasion of Afghanistan) and Operation Iraqi Freedom (invasion of Iraq).
