Sikorsky H-53 Series
helicopters combine power and versatility like nothing else in
the sky. The twin-engine helicopter is capable of lifting
7 tons. They're at home in searing
desert heat. Arctic cold. And everything in between. Flying a
gamut of missions. Including heavy-lift operations. Military
transport. Search and rescue. Vertical replenishment. Vertical
onboard delivery. Airborne mine countermeasures. Advanced early
warning. Minesweeping. Humanitarian aid. Disaster relief.
The
CH-53D Sea Stallion is designed for the transportation of
equipment, supplies and personnel during the assault phase of an
amphibious operation and subsequent operations ashore. Capable
of both internal and external transport of supplies, the CH-53D
is shipboard compatible and capable of operation in adverse
weather conditions both day and night. The CH-53D is now filling
a role in the Marine Corps' medium lift helicopter fleet.
The HH-53 Super
Jolly Green Giant helicopter was used extensively during the Vietnam
War for special operations and rescue of combat personnel.
The MH-53J Pave Low III
heavy-lift helicopter is the largest and most powerful
helicopter in the Air Force inventory, and the most
technologically advanced helicopter in the world. Its
terrain-following, terrain-avoidance radar and forward-looking
infrared sensor, along with a projected map display, enable the
crew to follow terrain contours and avoid obstacles, making
low-level penetration possible.
The
newest military version is MH-53E Sea Dragon, is the Western
world's largest helicopter. The MH-53E is used primarily for
Airborne Mine Countermeasures (AMCM), with a secondary mission
of shipboard delivery. Additional mission capabilities include
air-to-air refueling, hover in-flight refueling, search and
rescue, and external cargo transport operations, in both land
and seaborne environments. |
