Army National Guard
The Issue
The Army National Guard UH-60/HH-60 Black Hawk fleet continues to age, with many units operating aircraft over 26 years old. This platform is required to perform missions in support of overseas contingency operations, homeland response and MEDEVAC transport. To ensure maximum lethality and readiness, it is critical to continue fielding the most advanced Black Hawk variant, the UH/HH-60M, to Army National Guard units.
Recommendation
- The National Guard Association of the United States (NGAUS) strongly urges Congress to designate 10 additional UH-60M aircraft for the Army National Guard in FY2026.
