  • The CH-53K is the United States Marine Corps’ heavy lift replacement for the CH-53E. The most powerful helicopter in the Department of Defense, the CH-53K is a new-build helicopter that will expand the fleet’s ability to move more material, more rapidly throughout the area of responsibility using proven and mature technologies.

    I was stationed in Quantico, Virginia for 4 years. I was a Marine on the TBS side of the base, I had the absolute pleasure of touring a CH-53K that landed on base and was being used as a test chopper. It had a orange weight sled in the bay and orange cables running all through the interior. Anything orange indicated it was being tested, the pilot was a Major and we spoke for awhile even let me sit in the pilot seat. One of the best days of my life. Semper Fi 🇺🇸

    I was in the Corps for 8 years and was a crew chief on the CH-53D, which at the time was the military's premier heavy lift helo. The E model was just making it's debut in Naval Aviation as I was getting out. All I can say is Wow, how that bird has evolved. Very impressive!

      Can you imagine being able to put a 21man hand crew with equipment on fires immediately all that is missing is the Helicopters like these to do the job!
      🤔Every Helicopter has a hand crew to deploy as a single unit or split into 3- 7man squads & can work at night to support their hand crew/squads!
      We are way behind in the thinking about attacking wildfires!
