30 Years of Service

In a rare moment, all four versions of the UH-60 Blackhawk, encompassing over 30 years of service, are parked together on the ramp. In the front is UH-60A 79-23326; in the right front is UH-60A+ 81-23619; in the left rear, UH-60L 85-24460; and finally in the back HH-60M, 09-20156.
326 is the oldest and it has been decided that it's war days are over. It will only be partially modified with some of the latest navigation systems, but will not receive engine and transmission upgrades. The airframe is just too old to take the increased stresses. It will, however, stay in service for a long time to come.
