That's a picture of a CH-53E. I've watched the video sikorsky has of the prototype spinning upfor the first time. The CH-53K just looks like a technological beast. Technology has had the trend of making things smaller and more efficient. That's only the case in regards to empty weight and fuel efficiency with the CH-53K. It has so much more power and range and capacity its mind numbing. I wish the entire military bought these instead of the V-22, despite all its cool advantages, the V-22 costs more than the F-22 to maintain. That's way too high for a fast medium lift helo.

Gotta ask....

Why is this in the RC and scale modeling forum?
