The Grey Wolf is a multi-mission aircraft that offers with a range of capabilities, including combat support, missile silo security, search and rescue, and VIP transport.
The Grey Wolf will be used to patrol the intercontinental ballistic missile fields at Malmstrom, F.E. Warren AFB, and Minot AFB, replacing the aging UH-1N Huey helicopters that have been in service since 1970. The Grey Wolf offers improved speed, range, and cargo capacity needed for modernization efforts taking place near America’s nuclear arsenal and assets.
