    210331-N-PH222-1575 Fallon, Nev. (Mar. 31, 2021)



    A MH-60S Knighthawk helicopter, attached to the “Black Knights” of Helicopter Sea Combat (HSC) Squadron 4, prepares to land prior to loading ordnance for a live fire training exercise conducted near Naval Air Station (NAS) Fallon. Air Wing Fallon is part of the predeployment training cycle for Navy's carrier air wings. HSC-4, along with VFA-2, VFA-192, VFA-113, VFA-147, VAQ-136, VAW-113, and HSM-78 comprise CVW-2 and are detached to NAS Fallon in order to sharpen their warfighting readiness through a rigorous 5-week curriculum. The training conducted during Air Wing Fallon drives air wing integration and ensures that all CVW-2 squadrons are ready to conduct the full range of military operations when they deploy later this year. HSC 4 provides vertical lift search and rescue, logistics, anti-surface warfare, special operations forces support, and combat search and rescue capabilities.
