About the S-64 Skycrane
Overview of the S-64 Platform
The Sikorsky S-64 Skycrane is a purpose-built twin-engine heavy-lift helicopter, originally developed in the early 1960s as the civilian counterpart to the U.S. Army’s CH-54 Tarhe. First flown on May 9, 1962, the Skycrane’s distinctive open-frame, center-spine design was engineered specifically for external load operations. With over six decades of proven service, the S-64 remains the industry standard for precision heavy-lift work. Modern variants feature:
Massive Twin-Engine Power with Pratt & Whitney T73 turboshafts delivering up to 4,800 shaft horsepower each
Exceptional Lift Capacity up to 20,000 lbs external payload for construction, logging, and infrastructure projects
Precision Load Placement with rear-facing pilot station for accurate hovering and positioning
Six-Blade Main Rotor System engineered for heavy-lift stability and performance
Closing Text: Rotair supports the entire S-64 family with a full inventory of high-precision replacement components to keep these aircraft mission-ready.
