That's a beast of a helicopter.

i flew with the old version, we were only a squad in the cargo area, those things perform like sportscars, you can feel the huge amount of power in every moment. Sure the pilot had his fun during that low lewel flight.

These GE engines are an impressive bit of technology and quality. (Too bad GE home appliances aren't the same!!!!)

I was. mech on CH 53E’s Mag 29 they Are Amazing these 53K’s are Incredible!! OOH RAHH !! Semper Fi !!

One of these flew over my house here in NY at 100ft altitude and it shook the windows and my entire house. It was louder than 2 Blackhawks at the same altitude.

this, yours is the first video i've seen on YT featuring the 53K variation since Sikorsky announced it's production, ALL the others coming to my feed were the previous model... and if I'm viewing EC 135s, Apaches, Tocanos, C-130s and such on YT i would think the CH-53K would have come to me sooner. Thanks for this vid.

Those wee beasties sure are awesome - thanks for sharing this with us much appreciated

With those three monsters stirring up turbulence on the transient ramp if I was parked out there I'd be inside praying that my airplane was securely tied down.

How much fuel do those 3 engines suck per hour? I'd hate to be the one paying for the gas.

@coldstartarchives

2 ай бұрын

Per engine, General Electric estimates the "Specific fuel consumption: ~0.4 lb/hp-h". If I'm interpreting this correctly, it means each engine burns .4 pounds of fuel per horsepower, per hour. In other words (assuming my interpretation is correct), all three engines combined would burn 9,000 pounds of fuel per hour operating at the max HP of 7,500. .4lbs * 7,500 hp = 3,000lbs per hour 3k lbs * 3 engines = 9,000 lbs per hour

Cold start? After living in the northern parts of the U.S. and going outside when its -20 or -35 to start my car after it sat outside all night is what I call a cold start! The title is a bit disingenuous, IMO. I have built several models of this Helo and several hundred other armor/ aircraft and a few ships over the years and living in rural US. and the majority of ex military vehicles I see are trucks used in the logging trade.

That may be what you call a cold start, but a cold start simply refers to the temperature of the engine's fluids when it is started, not the outside air temperature
