Description
Description — UH-72 LAKOTA LIGHT UTILITY HELICOPTER
The UH-72 platform will provide the flexibility to respond to Homeland Security (HLS) requirements, conduct civil search and rescue operations, support damage assessment, support test and training centers, perform generating force missions, augment the HH-60 Medical Evacuation (MEDEVAC) aircraft, and provide support to CONUS counterdrug operations. The UH-72 will conduct general support utility helicopter missions and execute tasks as part of an integrated effort with other joint services, government agencies, and non-governmental organizations. The UH-72 provides time-sensitive transport of supplies or key personnel, air mobility to assist civil authorities through the execution of search and rescue or disaster relief operations, advanced warning/detection of external threats to include threats to our borders, augmentation of air ambulance capabilities, and limited command and control operations in the conduct of HLS. As part of the Aviation Restructure Initiative (ARI) the UH-72 became the primary training aircraft at the US Army Aviation Center of Excellence (USAACE) in Ft Novosel.
