As the most modern members of the SEAHAWK family, the MH-60R and MH-60S helicopters bring powerful new capabilities to the U.S. fleet with digital cockpits and mission-adaptive systems. The SEAHAWK helicopter family has more than 3 million flight hours with more than 600 SEAHAWK helicopters in service worldwide. Sikorsky helicopters, with more than 60 years of experience in performing maritime missions, has continuiously improved survivability and safety of these helicopters through :
1. Redundant flight control system
2. Ballistically tolerant upper controls and hub
3. 23mm ballistically tolerant main rotor blades
4. Redundant fail-safe tail rotor controls
5. Self-sealing fuel tanks
6. High mass components retained in 20/20/10G crash conditions
7. Modular transmission with fail-safe lubrication
8. Triple redundant hydraulic and electrical system
9. Spall-resistant windshield and cockpit structure
10. Jettisonable cockpit windows
11. Protective seating for all crew members
12. Energy absorbing landing gear
MH-60R is the most capable and mature Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) Anti-Surface Warfare (ASuW) multi-mission helicopter available in the world today.
MOTS: Low schedule, technical and financial risks.
Over 50,000 operational flight hours achieved to date.
More than 100 of an eventual 300 MH-60R aircraft have been delivered to the U.S. Navy.
Continued USN commitment to technology insertion and tip-to-tail life-cycle management.
Fully interoperable with USN and NATO standards — key node in network centric warfare. Fan Funding : PayPal : [email protected]. Thanks a lot for your support! 🙂
