In 2008, USMC HMH-464 "Condors" operated CH-53E Super Stallions from MCAS New River, North Carolina, providing critical heavy-lift support for the Marine Air-Ground Task Force. The squadron was heavily engaged in deployments to Iraq, where it transported troops, equipment, and supplies across the battlespace, often under hostile conditions. HMH-464's powerful helicopters enabled rapid mobility and logistical sustainment in support of combat operations. The Condors maintained high mission readiness through intensive maintenance and training, exemplifying Marine aviation's adaptability and resilience. Their efforts in 2008 directly contributed to the operational success of U.S. and coalition forces during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Designed to meet a US Marine Corps requirement for a heavy-lift transpory helicopter to replace the CH-37 Mojave, the CH-53 was first flown on October 14th, 1964. © Copyright 2003-2025 The Flying Mule, Inc.
