    5519 UH-60 Black Hawk = Walk. Around Number 19 squadron/signal publications UH-60 Black Hawk By Richard S. Dann Color by Don Greer Illustrated by Ernesto Cumpian and Richard Hudson > a : _ Walk Around Number 19 squadron/signal publications Introduction As an SOB pilot with 5O missions during the Gul War, Ihave come to know and appre- ciate the oustanding versatility ofthe Black Hawk/Seohawk family of helicopters. Perhaps no tiltary helioptr since the UH-1 Hoey has been adapted for so many missions and performed al of them extremely wel Even as this book goes o pres, the Hawk family continues to grow. The Amy is receiving {he UH.600 medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) helicopter, while the Navy i testing the CH- 60, which wil eventually replace thet CH-46 vertical replenishment (VERTREP) aircraft. Yn the future, the Navy will also move towards a common tactical Seahawk airtame, know as the SHOR Even though the Bock Hawk and Seahawk beara strong fay resemblance, there are many ditferences between the airframes, Naval Hawks are bl to withstand the rigors of operations at sea, and ae equipped with state-of the art ASW electoncs, while Amy’ and Air Force Hav ae bul for operations nthe lt wil tempt to spell ou these dierences, 5 well as common systems and equipment onthe diferent variants Temost bested thit Fave merely scratched the surface on documenting al the diffrent ‘aration othe Hawh family. It should ako be remembered tht many other nations fly Black Hawk and Seahawk airframes, but this book will focus primarily on US military varias.
