The U.S. Coast Guard’s Helicopter Interdiction Tactical Squadron unveils its new Blackfin paint scheme on an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter to commemorate the unit’s most successful fiscal year and more than 1,000 interdictions. The design recognizes HITRON’s role in seizing more than 511,000 pounds of cocaine three times its annual average and reflects the precision airborne use of force and sustained offshore interdiction that define the squadron’s mission.
