RESCO Training
Combat Search and Rescue (RESCO in French) training by air commandos of the unit EH 1/67 "Pyrénées" on helicopters EC-725 Caracal and SA-330 Puma.
In reality, these missions are often executed by night and without radio communication. The three masters words of a RESCO mission are : rapidity / discretion / firepower. During a RESCO, commandos are supported by combat helicopters with 30mm canons and rockets, and fighters to cover the aerial zone. Combat Search and Rescue units reassure pilots, and a successfully mission has a major political impact against the enemy.
