Was always going to be a bad choice especially fo the Medevac role.
Not the dumbest thing the Army has done with helicopters. Army Reg 95-1 prohibited smoking onboard. (I'm sure it still does) Yet just about every Blackhawk was fitted with TWO ashtrays....for the pilots pf course......at a cost of about (1993 property book values) $450.00 each.
