The UTT Helicopter Company, formally known as the Utility Tactical Transport Helicopter Company, was established by the United States Army in the early 1960s during the Vietnam War. It was one of the pioneering helicopter units tasked with providing air mobility, troop transport, and close air support using UH-1 "Huey" helicopters. The UTT Helicopter Company played a crucial role in developing and refining airmobile tactics, including air assault and rapid insertion/extraction operations under combat conditions. Their innovative use of helicopters significantly enhanced battlefield flexibility and set the standard for future Army aviation units.
