Air Operations Unit

An Air Operations Unit is a specialized team within emergency or law enforcement agencies that manages the use of aircraft such as helicopters and planes. They perform tasks like aerial surveillance, search and rescue, transportation of personnel or equipment, and support for ground operations. These units provide a strategic aerial perspective, enabling rapid response in situations like accidents, natural disasters, or criminal activities. Equipped with advanced flight and communication systems, they enhance the agency’s ability to coordinate efforts efficiently and effectively over large or inaccessible areas.
