About
The UH-60 Black Hawk was introduced and first flown in 1974, and entered U.S. Army service in 1979, as a replacement for the UH-1 Iroquois (Huey), another utility helicopter being used by the Army and Marines since 1959. The UH-1 'Huey' saw combat action with the Army and USMC in the Vietnam War, delivering troops into battle, giving them supplies, and doing MEDEVAC's, or medical evacuations. During the early 1970's, the U.S Army went on working on a new utility helicopter to take its place. This new helicopter, the UH-60 Black Hawk, manufactured by Sikorsky Aircraft, a American aircraft manufacturer company, first flew in 1974. In 1979 (5 years later), the UH-60A Black Hawk entered service with the U.S. Army, replacing the UH-1 as the Army's tactical transport helicopter.
