The newly decommissioned Marine One helicopter found a new home with the US Secret Service.

In a video posted to X on Wednesday, Secret Service Deputy Special Agent in Charge Troy Sarria announced the famed aircraft, a Sikorsky VH-3D, is now being used for special agent training at the Rowley Training Center in Maryland.

Over the last 50 years, Marine One has flown every US president and vice president.

“To get the ‘new’ Marine One helicopter, Deputy Chief Mike Jazwiecki initiated a conversation that led to our partnership and relationship with the Presidential Helicopter[s] Program (PMA-274),” Sarria said. “We worked with their current commander, [Marine] Col. [Alex] Ramthun, and their lead maintenance officer, Matt Cooper, in order to get this new aircraft.”

The helicopter is an authentic Marine One platform that was recently decommissioned.

As spotted on the White House South Lawn, Marine One is rumored to have special security features and specs to protect the nation’s leaders, including the ability to carry more weight and fly longer distances without refueling, Fox News Digital previously reported.

“It’s a genuine piece of presidential and Secret Service history,” Sarria said.

Agents going to the president’s or vice president’s detail will have the opportunity to learn in a hands-on, realistic training environment thanks to the new addition.

“We are able to give the basic special agent classes more and better protective training,” Sarria said. “This is another step forward in advancing the Secret Service’s training capability here at the Rowley Training Center.”
