The current fleet is made up of the VH-3 Sea King and the VH-60N "WhiteHawk", which entered service with the squadron in 1988.
HMX-1 also operates a small number of CH-53E Super Stallions and CH-46 Sea Knights for utility purposes, and will be replaced with CH-53Ks and MV-22B Ospreys, respectively, by 2017.[10] These aircraft also share the HMX-1 dark green livery. VIP transport helicopters can be distinguished from their utility counterparts and non-EFD aircraft by the white paint at the top of the aircraft, leading to the nickname "white tops."
