Unit #108 SH-3G Sea King (2x MG #174 - UC #221 Hv Helo) 01/69-12/71
Unit #109 CH-3E JG Giant (3x HMG #175 - UC #221 Hv Helo) 02/66-03/90
Unit #167 HH-3A Sea King (2x MiniGun #192 - UC #221 Hv Helo) 07/63-12/68
Unit #168 UH-3H Sea King (2x MiniGun #192 - UC #221 Hv Helo) 01/81-01/06
Unit #909 UH-3H Sea King (2x MG #174 - UC #221 Hv Helo) 01/72-12/80

........you might want to re-check what "UC #221" represents........


Don
Actually I took that into account.

Heavy helos AREN'T used for combat lift into HOT LZ's by the USMC. They're used as flying trucks.

The various USN helos mentioned are SAR/ASW choppers, and thus not something even remotely intended to be used for normal airlift operations.
