4-H 2011

Amanda Mariglie, F. E. Warren Youth Center child and youth program assistant, helps Ryan Lambert, 6, position his group’s model wind turbine in front of a fan Oct. 5, as Andrew Gray, 6, looks on. The youth center’s 4-H club took part in the 4-H National Youth Science Day; the theme this year was “Wired for Wind.” Club members were taught about wind turbines and then divided into groups to build their own turbines. Once the group made modifications to the design, they had the best working turbine of the day. (U.S. Air Force photo by R.J. Oriez)

550th Helicopter Squadron begins MH-139A initial operational tests and evaluations

A UH-1N Huey helicopter assigned to the 40th Helicopter Squadron lands at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Mont., Jan. 28, 2025. The Huey is a versatile light-lift utility helicopter designed to support a wide range of missions. Its primary roles include transporting emergency security forces, providing security and surveillance for off-base nuclear weapons convoys, and conducting distinguished visitor airlifts. Beyond these core functions, the Huey is also used for disaster response, search and rescue, medical evacuations, airborne cable inspections, aircrew survival training support, aerial testing and routine transport to missile sites.

550th Helicopter Squadron begins MH-139A initial operational tests and evaluations

A UH-1N Huey helicopter assigned to the 40th Helicopter Squadron and an MH-139A Grey Wolf helicopter assigned to the 550th Helicopter Squadron fly back to Malmstrom Air Force Base, Mont., Jan. 28, 2025, after an MH-139 Initial Operational Test and Evaluation mission. IOT&E is a critical phase in the development and fielding of new military systems. It's a rigorous testing and evaluation process that assesses the system's operational effectiveness, suitability and survivability in a realistic and operational environment. Three MH-139 IOT&E flights took place during the week of Jan. 27, 2025, demonstrating the aircraft’s capabilities. One test evaluated the aircraft’s ability to support a convoy, assessing communication systems and general convoy support operations. The other two tests focused on emergency response, specifically launch facility recapture and recovery - measuring response times from idle to airborne. The helicopters responded to a simulated threat with a full tactical response force loadout and onboard weapons. Congress mandates IOT&E to ensure the aircraft can successfully perform its assigned missions, as well as to provide evidence confirming the MH-139 can seamlessly assume the UH-1N Huey’s mission without any lapse in capability. Once IOT&E is complete, a report will be compiled to inform the 550th Helicopter Squadron and Air Force Global Strike Command of the aircraft’s performance. At that point, AFGSC can formally assign the nuclear security mission to the MH-139, allowing the UH-1N Huey to be retired from duty at Malmstrom. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Mary Bowers)
