it's sand hitting the blades and can be seen at night without NVG's when landing. The hawk kicks up a tremendous amount of dust/dirt.

lol. what did you just make that up 5 minutes before writing it? its obviously bullshit.

I used to work on these in HS-4 in NASNI. The light on the rotors is static buildup. You can see it with the naked eye at night. Darling is right. When the air passes over the skin of the aircraft it can build up to 20,000V on a dry day. As you can see it is pretty dry in the Gulf.

nah cant be static, helis have static wicks to discharge static electricity as its a danger to unspent fuel and winching. Plus the friction caused by the sand striking the blades is making heat, which in turn is giving off infra red radiation, making more ambient light for the NV equipment to pick up.

This is an SH-60F. Note the exhaust plume (no HIRSS), SONAR dome hole on bottom of cabin, and no mount for the diving board platform for the FLIR. Cool video anyway

Evanpilot... you just said exactly what I was going to say.

I have to go with the static electricity build up, but it started to glow as it got near the ground and stopped when it gained altitude

My aviator bud says the flashes is the static electricity builty up, which is why they use a ground when hooking up vehicles for air assault ops. Cool vid.

This is what the originating website said:
Sent to us by a naval aviator now stationed at NAS Key West, this video shows an HH-60H landing at night in Kuwait. The lights on the rotor disk are caused by sand striking the blades and causing heat.
