Canada Refuses To Accept Sikorsky Helos
[Link mogu videti samo ulogovani korisnici]
Citat:In what one top official is calling “the worst procurement in the history of Canada,” the government has refused to accept maritime helicopters (Cyclones, a maritime variant of Sikorsky’s S-92) being offered by Sikorsky under a $5 billion contract, arguing that the new aircraft don’t meet the needs of the Royal Canadian Air Force.The first fully equipped helicopter was supposed to be delivered in November 2008, with delivery of all 28 helicopters by early 2011. But Sikorsky has yet to deliver a fully compliant helicopter.

Nije baš stvarno u temi ali mislim da ipak može ovde.

Citat:Israel acquires surplus CH-53 helicopters for spares

The Israeli air force has acquired five decommissioned Sikorsky CH-53 transport helicopters from the USA to be used for spares, as part of a continuing effort to keep its aged fleet of the type flying.

Selected by air force experts, the ex-US Marine Corps aircraft were moved by truck from storage in Arizona to Houston, Texas, where they were loaded on to a cargo ship. Following their arrival in Israel in mid-February, they will be taken to the 22 maintenance unit at Tel Nof air base and cannibalised as required.

In addition to the airframes, Israel will also receive a number of engines, tail sections, rotor blades and other items that have been removed from service to support its fleet.

The Israeli air force has an active fleet of 23 of the heavy transports, which Flightglobal's Ascend Online Fleets database shows comprises 18 in the CH-53 2000 standard and five which have been modified to the enhanced Yasur 2025 standard, which introduces new electronic warfare and satellite communication equipment.

Efforts to sustain the fleet have already included removing one retired aircraft from long-term storage at Tel Nof in 2011 and launching a programme to return it to operational use.

Israel previously planned to replace its inventory with the USMC's new CH-53K, which is now under development. However, Boeing has suggested its air force could potentially operate its CH-47F Chinook under a private finance initiative (PFI) deal, where a third party would purchase helicopters and supply flight hours to the air force.

The service already uses the PFI framework widely to obtain access to fleets of training aircraft and helicopters, and sources suggest heavy budget restrictions could potentially see it expand its use of such arrangements to cover other equipment areas.

Jos malo pa prvi let za CH-53K....


Citat:In January 2014, Sikorsky powered 'on' the three GE 7,500 shaft horsepower class engines of the first CH-53K heavy lift helicopter prototype - known as the Ground Test Vehicle - and spun the rotor head without rotor blades. The event continues safety-of-flight tests started in December with pilots at the aircraft's controls. The Ground Test Vehicle is anchored to the ground at Sikorsky's West Palm Beach, Development Flight Center in Florida. Four additional test aircraft are being prepared for flight test, beginning in late 2014. (PRNewsFoto/Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation)
