Noteworthy the aircraft arrived in Europe to support Operation Atlantic Resolve.
As you can see by looking at the pictures, among the helicopters involved in this deployment there are CH-47 Chinooks, UH-60 Black Hawks, HH-60 Black Hawks, and AH-64 Apaches.
The 1st Air Cavalry Brigade’s mission is to deploy by sea, air, or land to any part of the world on short notice and once engaged with the threat to destroy, neutralize, or suppress the enemy.
Atlantic Resolve is a demonstration of continued U.S. commitment to collective security through a series of actions designed to reassure NATO allies and partners of America’s dedication to enduring peace and stability in the region in light of the Russian intervention in Ukraine.
Since April 2014, Army Europe has led land forces efforts on behalf of the U.S. military, by conducting continuous, enhanced multinational training and security cooperation activities with allies and partners in eastern Europe.
These multinational training and security cooperation activities are taking place in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary. These training events improve interoperability, strengthen relationships and trust among allied armies, contribute to regional stability, and demonstrate U.S. commitment to NATO.
Atlantic Resolve demonstrates the U.S. commitment to the security of NATO allies on air, land, and at sea. To ensure its own security, NATO must have strong, committed, and capable allies, which is why the United States has fought, exercised and trained with our European allies for the past 70 years. The U.S.-European strategic partnership is built on a foundation of shared values, experiences, and commitment to a Europe that is stable and prosperous.
