Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
The UH-60s in the game were used by the U.S. Military to transport U.S. Marines to the Middle Eastern city where they were searching for Khaled Al-Asad in the level "Charlie Don't Surf". A Black Hawk (Hammer 2-4) was used by the Special Air Service (SAS) to infiltrate a cargo ship in the level "Crew Expendable", while a second Black Hawk (Hammer 6-4) extracts Nikolai with Captain Price and his team from Russia in the end of the level "Blackout", shortly before being shot down by an enemy Stinger missile in the followed level, "Hunted". It is also used in "The Sins of the Father" by SAS and USMC Joint Forces to track down Victor Zakhaev (Vulture One-Six). In "All In", a Black Hawk is seen dropping Marines on the launch facility. A crashed Black Hawk is seen in "Heat" with a still-functional minigun, used as a defensive turret against the Ultranationalists. A Blackhawk provides minigun support in "Crew Expendable" and "The Sins of the Father", taking out enemy positions that the player cannot destroy.

Behind the scenes

Added by SiPlus- The crashed Black Hawk originally featured in the multiplayer map Crash (possibly as a reference to the 2001 film Black Hawk Down), but it was replaced with a CH-46 Sea Knight to replicate the setting of "Aftermath" more effectively.
Trivia
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
- In "Blackout", at the UH-60 that extracts the SAS has Royal Air Force markings, but Russian pilots. In level "Hunted", after the crash, the pilots are different.
- In the beginning of "Charlie Don't Surf", even if a helicopter gets shot with an RPG-7 at the beginning of the mission, it will keep on flying. This is because it is a scripted and mandatory action and the enemies shoot to make the level more interactive or cinematic. This happens very often at the beginning of levels.
- Black Hawks fly around the map in the level "Charlie Don't Surf". They sometimes gun down enemies with gunners firing from vulcans.
- The Black Hawks in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare have the Royal Air Force markings. All of the UH-60s in the Modern Warfare games are in the RAF paint job, albeit with the "ROYAL AIR FORCE" marking altered as appropriate.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
- In Exodus and Wardriving, the Black Hawks that are supposed to be evacuating civilians are seen, but rarely. This is most likely because so many are being shot down.
- In the Special Ops mission Big Brother, the gunner's feet are sticking through the floor of Gunslinger-One.
- It is possible to shoot down a Black Hawk with an AT4 in "Just Like Old Times".
- In "Exodus", after the C-130 crashes, you can see a UH-60 rise from a backyard only to be shot down.
- In "Just Like Old Times", the riot shield teams are fast-roped in by UH-60s and later a UH-60 Black Hawk drops off Shadow Company troops alongside a MH-6 Little Bird after the artillery strike.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
- In the map Bakaara, there is a Black Hawk in the middle of the map, destroyed, but with a working minigun. This is likely a reference to the 2001 film Black Hawk Down.
