A Helicopter Combat Support Squadron (HC) 2 "Fleet Angels" UH-3H Sea King at the Muharraq platform. The squadron runned Detachment 2 at this location. Strikingly is the nice arabic 740 on the nose cone. The UH-3H is a cargo, utility transport conversion of the SH-3H Sea King. The SH-3H Anti-Submarine/Surface Warfare systems were removed to make space for cargo. This photo is copyright © Stephan de Bruijn, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
