An MH-65E Dolphin helicopter from the Coast Guard Helicopter Interdiction Tactical Squadron with new "Blackfin" paint design conducts airborne-use-of-force training in the Caribbean Sea, Apr. 21, 2026. The HITRON aviation detachment was embarked aboard Coast Guard Cutter Bear (WMEC 901) and assisted in disabling drug smuggling vessels as part of Operation Pacific Viper; the new “Blackfin” on the helicopter's rudder commemorated HITRON’s most successful fiscal year on record, and the milestone of surpassing 1,000 interdictions.
