JOHNSTON, Iowa -- UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter pilots and crew members with the Iowa Army National Guard had an opportunity to train on a first-of-its-kind flight simulator at the Camp Dodge Joint Maneuver Training Center here.
The Black Hawk Aircrew Trainer, known as "the BAT," is a highly immersive, home-station flight training device for the UH-60M Black Hawk helicopter. While the BAT boasts many advantages over past simulators, its primary purpose is to prepare pilots for situations they hope will never happen.
