>>>Here’s the big question, how did Marine 1 make it to LA? Think of the carbon footprint that cost.
The Marines have more than one of that particular model helicopter - the only thing that makes it “Marine1” - or other craft “Air Force 1” is the presence of the CIC - it can be any piece of hardware... and yeah, an Army helo could be “Army 1” if the CIC was on board.
“an Army helo could be “Army 1” if the CIC was on board.”
I’ll bet that they probably use a batch of specific Marine helicopters that are equipped with devices that could thwart any potential type of SAM...
CIC? still sticks in my craw that socialist joker is commander of anything.
