Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion

车辆背景与资料

Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion 是一款由美国军方运营的重型运输直升机。作为 Sikorsky S-80,它是在 CH-53 Sea Stallion 的基础上发展而来,主要增加了第三台发动机、为主旋翼增加了第七片桨叶,并将尾桨倾斜了20°。它由 Sikorsky Aircraft 为美国海军陆战队制造。该机型于1970年代研发,1981年投入使用,计划服役至2030年代。它是现役最大的军用直升机之一,可从美国海军舰艇或陆地起降。

美国海军还运营 MH-53E Sea Dragon,以满足美国海军对远程扫雷或机载水雷对抗任务的需求,并为海军执行重型运输任务。配备新型发动机、新型复合材料旋翼桨叶和更宽机身的 Sikorsky CH-53K King Stallion 计划在2020年代取代 CH-53E 并投入使用。现役的大多数 Super Stallion 均配置为 MH-53E Sea Dragon。
