The HH-65 Dolphin is a MEDEVAC-capable short-range recovery (SSR) helicopter operated by several agencies in the United States, including the United States Coast Guard. It is a variant of the French-built Eurocopter Dauphin. In 2002 there were 94 Dolphins in use by the USCG; it is the replacement for the HH-52A Sikorsky Sea Guard. The HH-65 Dolphin is used for homeland security patrols, cargo, drug interdiction, ice breaking, military readiness, pollution control, and search and rescue missions.
