Special Operations Aviation Command (U.S. Army) Pint Glass 16oz

The Special Operations Aviation Command (SOAC) is a vital component of the United States Army, primarily responsible for providing aviation support to special operations forces during their various missions. Established in 1981, it consolidated several existing aviation units dedicated to serving special operations under one command structure. The SOAC includes several types of aircraft and helicopters, such as the MH-47 Chinook, MH-60 Black Hawk, and MQ-1 Predator, among others. These aircraft are equipped for night vision, electronic countermeasures, and other specialized capabilities to support various mission profiles, including reconnaissance, air mobility, combat search and rescue, and direct action. The SOAC operates worldwide, often in challenging environments, and plays a crucial role in the U.S. military's ability to project power rapidly and effectively.
