Which MAJCOM installs ammunition on search and rescue helicopters?

The correct answer is C, as AFSOC (Air Force Special Operations Command) is the Major Command responsible for the installation of ammunition on search and rescue helicopters. AFSOC is tasked with organizing, training, and equipping Air Force units to conduct special operations missions. This includes supporting operations that require the use of various types of ammunition and armaments specific to rescue and recovery missions.

Search and rescue helicopters are often equipped for combat search and rescue (CSAR) operations, which necessitates the integration of weapons and ammunition to protect personnel and enhance mission success. AFSOC units are trained to carry out these specialized missions, and part of their operational capability includes the management and installation of ammunition systems on relevant aircraft.

The other Major Commands listed either focus on different operational areas or responsibilities not directly related to the specific function of arming search and rescue helicopters. For instance, ACC (Air Combat Command) primarily focuses on air combat operations, AFMC (Air Force Material Command) deals with research, development, and logistics, and PACAF (Pacific Air Forces) oversees operations in the Pacific region but does not specifically handle ammunition installation for search and rescue units.
