CH-46 Sea Knight // USMC Airplane Model

USMC CH-46 Sea Knight helicopter mahogany model. The CH-46E is used by the Marine Corps to provide all-weather, day-or-night assault transport of combat troops, supplies and equipment. Troop assault is the primary function, and the movement of supplies and equipment is secondary. Additional tasks may be assigned, such as combat support, search and rescue, support for forward refueling and rearming points, aero medic evacuation of casualties from the field and recovery of aircraft and personnel. It saw extensive use in the Vietnam War and remains the workhorse of Marine helicopter aviation.
