Next to the aggressor coloured Lakota the JMRC also operated standard coloured UH-72A Lakota, like 09-72097 seen here near its homebase.

Seen here is Ansbach resident AH-64D Apache 09-05581, operating with B/1-3rd AVN/12th CAB and equipped with the Longbow radar. The Delta-models have been replaced with the AH-64E Guardian Apache in 2023/2024.

The far the majority of the US Army Black Hawk helicopters is painted in the standard dull green colour scheme. The helicopters used by the 1st USASB AVN CO in the Sinai desert (Egypt) are a major exception. The role of this unit is to provide support to the UN peace keepers in the desert area between Egypt and Israel, which explains the high visibility colours.

Market Garden brought the Alpha company of 1-214th AVN to Grave as well. Their normal domicile is Wiesbaden.

Another shot from a A/1-214th AVN UH-60M Blackhawk, this time being frame number 15-20754.

We are lucky in Europe to house one of the rare 'aggressor' units. Nowadays they fly the Lakota in this stunning colour scheme.
Edward Kleiser
Originally purchased by the USAF as C-12F-3, but later transferred to the US Army and converted to C-12U-3. D 52nd AVN changed to E/1-214th AVN uses this aircraft for liaisons, VIP transport and transport duties.
