Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron TWO (HELSEACOMBATRON TWO or HSC-2) (previously Helicopter Combat Support Squadron TWO (HC-2)), also known as the “Fleet Angels”, is a helicopter squadron of the United States Navy based at Naval Station Norfolk operating the Sikorsky MH-60S Knighthawk. The Fleet Angels are a Fleet Replacement Squadron providing trained MH-60S crew to units on the East Coast. The squadron was established as Helicopter Combat Support Squadron TWO (HC-2) on 1 April 1987 from components of several helicopter squadrons, including HC-6, HM-12, and HS-3. They originally were nicknamed the “Circuit Riders” but adopted the name Fleet Angels from the previous the earlier HC-2, the lineal predecessor of HU-2, one of the U.S. Navy’s first two helicopter squadrons, which had been disestablished on 30 September 1977 after thirty years of service. In the early days of the squadron, they operated the Sikorsky SH-3 Sea King in UH-3H and UH-3H(ET) versions, as well as the Sikorsky MH-53E Sea Dragon.
