The UH-60s in the game were used by the U.S. Military to transport U.S. Marines to the Middle Eastern city where they were searching for Khaled Al-Asad in the level "Charlie Don't Surf". A Black Hawk (Hammer 2-4) was used by the Special Air Service to infiltrate a cargo ship in the level "Crew Expendable", while a second Black Hawk (Hammer Two-Six) extracts Nikolai with John Price and his team from Russia in the end of the level "Blackout", shortly before being shot down by an enemy Stinger missile in the following level, "Hunted". It is also used in "The Sins of the Father" by SAS and USMC Joint Forces to track down Victor Zakhaev (callsign Vulture One-Six). In "All In", a Black Hawk is seen dropping Marines at the launch facility. A crashed Black Hawk is seen in "Heat" with a still-functional Minigun, used as a defensive turret against the Ultranationalists. A Blackhawk provides minigun support in "Crew Expendable" and "The Sins of the Father", taking out enemy positions that the player cannot destroy. In "All In", a Blackhawk inserts Two-Six Team into the battlefield.
The player controls the minigun on a Black Hawk supporting the ground troops.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 & Remastered[]
The Pave Low has displaced both the Black Hawk and the Sea Knight as the main transport helicopter, though the UH-60 is still seen in both campaign and Special Ops.
Appearance in Campaign[]
The Black Hawk mounts what the game calls an "M61 Vulcan cannon" with explosive 20mm rounds, though the gun itself appears to be a reskinned M134 minigun.
The Black Hawk makes a brief appearance as the exfil helicopter in the mission Closing In. It appears with rocket pods.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3[]
The Blackhawk is in "Black Tuesday", used as an evac for Team Metal from the NY Stock Exchange. Sgt. Derek "Frost" Westbrook used a door mounted M134 Minigun to destroy pursuing Mi-24s in a helicopter duel down Wall Street. In Survival Mode, it is used as the transport the Delta Squad and Riot Shield Squad deploy from.
Appearance in Campaign[]
The Black Hawk again uses M134 Minigun, instead of being armed with a M61. It appears in the missions:
The Blackhawk reappears in Black Ops II. In the mission "Cordis Die", one LAPD Blackhawk is shot down in Los Angeles. Several others are seen later in the mission. Several unmarked Blackhawks can be seen during the mission Karma; first, while entering the elevator and looking out to the swimming pool; next, when inserted all Cordis Die's mercenary reinforcements. It also appears in Strike Force missions FOB Spectre and Shipwreck. In Shipwreck, several Blackhawks inserted the SEAL teams.
The Blackhawk also appears in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. It first appears in the level Fog of War, where it dispatches CIA Agent Alex and Marine Raider forces led by Sergeant Hoyt as they try to raid Barkov's depot. At the beginning of the level the Embassy, one UH-60 is shown transporting Price and Garrick to the Urzikstan Embassy. However, it is shot down by Al Qatala forces, forcing the duo to evacuate before the helicopter crashes. It is also shown in the end of the level Captive, where it picks up Captain Price and his squad after rescuing Farah and her fellow rebels from prison. When Hadir is captured by Kyle and Price, Laswell arrives in a UH-60 with 2 Marines and announces that Hadir is going to be transferred into Russia’s custody. Several UH-60's are also shown in the level Into the Furnace, where it merely acts as enemy helicopters, presumably stolen by Barkov's men. It can optionally be shot down by Garrick if he paints the chopper to be hit by their drone's missiles..
Blackhawk's also make an appearance in Call of Duty: Warzone as the exfil vehicle for the winning team.
In "Blackout", at the UH-60 that extracts the SAS has Russian pilots, but in level "Hunted", after the crash, the pilots are different.
The Black Hawks in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare have the Royal Air Force markings. All of the UH-60s in the Modern Warfare games are in the RAF paint job.
The Black Hawk in early version of Crash.
A crashed Black Hawk originally featured in the multiplayer map Crash, but it was replaced with a CH-46 Sea Knight to replicate the setting of "Aftermath" more effectively.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2[]
In Exodus and Wardriving, the Black Hawks that are supposed to be evacuating civilians can be occasionally seen.
In the Special Ops mission Big Brother, the gunner's feet are sticking through the floor of Gunslinger-One.
In "Exodus", after the C-130 crashes, player can see a UH-60 rise from a backyard only to be shot down.
All helicopters are missing a pilot and co-pilot.
When a Blackhawk goes down no one is in the helicopter, even when it is full.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3[]
In the map Bakaara, there is a Black Hawk in the middle of the map, destroyed, but with a working minigun. This is likely a reference to the 2001 film Black Hawk Down.
Call of Duty: Black Ops II[]
In mission "Karma", Blackhawks transporting Mercs can be destroyed with one shot from high caliber sniper rifle or shooting the pilot.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare[]
In Special Ops, the UH-60 Blackhawk used during exfil at the end of operations do not have regular pilot models. Instead, the model is a United States Marine Corps member.
