Military Exercise Talisman Saber 2013: Australian Helicopters Rescue Helicopter VH-LSV Calls Into Rockhampton Airport with Injured Soldier

During the morning on Saturday 20 July, local plane spotter 'IAD' photographed Australian Helicopters Agusta AB412 (Bell 412) helicopter VH-LSV, which is currently acting in a medical evacuation (medi-vac) role, based in the Shoalwater Bay Training Area during Exercise Talisman Saber 2013.


VH-LSV operated in and out of Rockhampton Airport from the Williamson Airfield in the Training Area as "Rescue 920".

Meanwhile, on Friday 19 July, Trevor H captured three lovely photos of a flight of two Australian Army Sikorsky S-70A-9 Blackhawk helicopters and two United States Navy (USN) Sikorsky HH-60H Seahawk helicopters as they departed together on another sortie to SWBTA.




Thanks to the Rockhampton Plane Spotters for continuing to send through their fantastic images from Exercise Talisman Saber 2013.
