An HH60J conducts helo ops with other Coast Guard units. The HH-60J Jayhawk is a medium-range recovery helicopter. The HH-60J is used to perform search and rescue, law enforcement, military readiness, and marine environmental protection missions. The HH-60J is not able to perform water landings. Though normally stationed ashore, the HH-60J can land and take-off from 270-foot medium endurance cutter and 378-foot high endurance Coast Guard Cutters. These cutters are capable of refueling and supporting the helicopter for the duration of a cutter patrol. USCG photo by PA1 Alex Worden
