The 101st Airborne Division, known as the "Screaming Eagles," is no longer primarily an airborne unit because it transitioned to an air assault role. This change was made to adapt to modern military needs, allowing for rapid deployment and flexibility using helicopters for air mobility and insertion, rather than traditional parachute jumps.
