Archival photos of the "Agile Chariot" exercises on the evacuation of downed pilots, which were conducted in Wyoming in April-May 2023.
One of the scenarios of the exercises, in which servicemen of the CCT and PJ special units from the 123rd Special Tactical Squadron participated, was similar to the evacuation, carried out already in combat conditions in the depth of the enemy's territory.
On a track in the mountainous area of the state, a field airfield was deployed, on which the aircraft MC-130J Commando II landed, delivering helicopters MH-6M Little Bird from the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment for search teams. The helicopters were unloaded and prepared for takeoff in a few minutes, after which the PJ search teams moved to the location of the downed pilot for his evacuation.
In the full version of the photo set from the exercises, there are also shots of refueling the UAVs MQ-9 Reaper and A-10 Thunderbolt II with fuel from the MC-130J Commando II in field conditions.
