The Preliminary Airworthiness Evaluation of the UH-60A helicopter configured with the External Stores Support System was conducted. A total of 26 test flights were conducted. Limited level flight performance tests were conducted to determine the change in drag of the UH-60A helicopter caused by three External Stores Support System configurations with various stores installed. An unexplained increase in power required was found between the Preliminary Airworthiness Evaluation test aircraft and the aircraft used during a previous Airworthiness and Flight Characteristics evaluation.
