SOF Week 2024: Capabilities Demonstration : "Battle of the Bay" : Tampa, FL Part III

In Case You Missed It: SPIE at SOF WEEK 2024
The Special Patrol Insertion/Extraction (SPIE) system was developed as a means to rapidly insert and/or extract a reconnaissance patrol from an area that does not permit a helicopter to land. SPIE has application for rough terrain as well as water inserts/extracts. It is an adaptation of the STABO rig.
Performed expertly by pilots from the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Airborne) and U.S. special operators in front of a crowd of thousands last week in Tampa FL, this was one of the most amazing parts of the "Battle of the Bay" event at SOF Week!
