Does the UH-60 blackhawk fly in the U.S. Marines?
The UH-60 is indeed flown by the U.S. Marines and by all other branches of the service. It has a number of modified forms to adapt this platform to a variety of roles. It turns out that only an elite group of U.S. Marines currently fly the VH-60N Blackhawk. It is flown by the Nighthawks of U.S. Marines HMX-1 out of MCAF, Quantico, VA. And it's for transporting the President, the Vice President, Cabinet members and V.I.P.'s. It is a specialized application, and, oddly, the only one for the use of the Blackhawk by the USMC.

In the Fleet Marine Force, which is the heart of the Marine Corps, they use the UH-1N Twin Huey, which is going to be upgraded to the UH-1Y Venom. The Marines also use the AH-1T Twin Cobra instead of the AH-64 Apache. In both cases, it's because of the rotor system. Hueys and Cobras both have two-blade main rotors, which make it very easy to put them close together on the deck of a carrier. Blackhawks and Apaches have four-blade mains, so they can't be shoved in tight without folding the blades. The VH-60 will be replaced when the EH-101 comes into the presidential fleet. Another troop carrier used by the Marines is the CH-53.
