And yet, a bunch of the MH-60L's are still flying. Those old battle axes are never going to quit... and they predate the Kilos.

Good deal with the new Mike models though, can't beat 5,200SHP in a 'Hawk.

And after they had dropped them off for scrapping, I bet the crews flew home in a UH1! ;)

More likely in a UH-60L, or a UH-60M, since those are the most common airframes in the Army inventory.

Will they be scrapped or sold?
