USMC *First CH-53K KING STALLION Heavy Lift Helicopter arrives for testing & evaluation
The first CH-53K King Stallion taxis across the flight line at Marine Corps Air Station New River, North Carolina May 16, 2018.
The aircraft’s delivery to MCAS New River marks another on-time milestone for the U.S. Marine Corps' future heavy-lift helicopter program.
Personnel with Marine Operational Test and Evaluation Squadron 1 will bring the CH-53K into the supportability test plan, where they will conduct a logistical assessment on the maintenance, sustainment and overall logistics support of the King Stallion.
The CH-53K is meant to replace the Marine Corp’s fleet of CH-53E heavy-lift helicopters. The King Stallion has several upgrades over the legacy aircraft including a digital glass cockpit and fly-by-wire controls. It can externally transport 27,000 lbs. over 110 nautical miles and has a max external lift of 36,000 lbs., three times that of the legacy “E” aircraft.

Why is the rotor sightly tilted forward?

Just by the sound of it, she's already been flying around here tonight with an E model. I may be wrong, but one doesn't sound like the other and it was dark out.

John Hall The turbines sounded different to me between the two. E's have seven rotor blades also don't they? Most of the E's I've heard have a definite swish sound emanating from the main rotor. Tail rotor noise is very pronounced also. I've always looked up since I was young whenever I heard a helicopter. I miss hearing the 46's.

Yes, the echos have 7 main rotor blades. The engines will sound different because they are different. The "swishing" sound you hear is from a main rotor blade that is tracking a little differently from the rest...not that it's out of limits or anything...just one rotor is most likely flying higher than the rest.
