FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (Univ. of Ark.) – The Arkansas Army National Guard will perform a flyover prior to Saturday’s game between Arkansas and No. 17 Mississippi State at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium.

Two UH61 Blackhawks and two UH72 Lakota helicopters will fly past the stadium immediately following the national anthem just prior to the 11 a.m. CT kickoff.

The aircraft belong to the 77th Combat Aviation Brigade, based out of Camp Robinson Army Airfield in North Little Rock, Arkansas. Their primary missions vary from air assault operations, casualty evacuation, counter-drug operations and support of humanitarian relief efforts.
