@Vykuk123 Google is very good to help answer your questions!

ar·ma·ment/ˈärməmənt/Noun

1. Military weapons and equipment: "chemical weapons and other unconventional armaments".

2. The process of equipping military forces for war

@Vykuk123 Mostly this helo doesnt carry armament. Its specific mission is to sweep for mines. Its main weapon in that regard is a big towed sled that it pulls from the air to sweep mines. It can and does carry 2 door guns and a ramp gun from time to time that Ive seen. Usually M240s on the door and a .50 on the ramp.

@diviengi Navy. MH-53E. The Marines fly the CH-53E.

@ccaddaddy when we moved to Corpus we'd get complaints almost daily.. "They are too loud" "Why is it hovering over my house?" etc...

[fbod383]

I was in HM15 from 95 to 99, we did the move from Alameda to Corpus Christi

[ccaddaddy]
