Helicopter Combat Support Squadron 4 (HC-4), the Invaders, was a U.S. Navy helicopter squadron that operated the H-3 Sea King and CH-53E Sea Stallion, providing heavy-lift, combat support, and special operations aviation capabilities. HC-4 supported fleet operations across the Mediterranean, delivering critical cargo, conducting mine countermeasures, and providing vertical onboard delivery to the Sixth Fleet.
