heliDavis-Monthan Air Force Base units will conduct joint training with Navy Helicopter Sea Combat Squadrons from Naval Air Station North Island, San Diego, Calif., in November.

* Five active duty MH-60S Knighthawks from the BLACK KNIGHTS of HSC-4 will participate in joint training with an A-10 squadron and Combat Search and Rescue units here at D-M Nov 3 to Nov 15.

* Four HH-60H Seahawks from the Firehawks of HSC-85, a US Navy Reserve unit, will conduct joint training with the 354th Fighter Squadron at D-M Nov 12 to Nov 21.

Both airframes are similar to the HH-60 Pave Hawk, which is stationed here.

The training scenarios will take place in southern Arizona’s many outstanding military training ranges and will give the units a chance to test their skills and strengthen joint operations between the military services. During their visits, the pilots will adhere to all Davis-Monthan arrival and departure procedures and noise abatement procedures.
