Sikorsky S-64 "Air Crane"

The Sikorsky S-64E, also known as the Erickson Air-Crane, is the helicopter for heavy lifting. The Air-Crane is a versatile and incredibly powerful vehicle, taking the title as the heaviest lifter of them all in the helicopter category.

This recreation of the legendary S-64 has been made to look as much like the original as possible while giving it the same versatility and robustness as the real life counterpart. All specifications are as close to the original as possible. Powered by a pair of high-power jet turbines, the lifting capabilities of the Air-Crane are just as staggering as the sheer size of the helicopter. The helicopter has also been equipped with four winches with mag-all's for lifting and dropping off containers - something that is made even easier by the built-in camera and easy-to-use systems operated by the co-pilot. Additionally, any ISO standardized containers can be attached to the four connectors on the helicopter easily, either after a container has been lifted up by the winches, or by loading the container manually - the S-64 has been made to work in any situation, no matter the conditions.

As previously mentioned, the Sikorsky S-64 does more than just lifting. Many may actually recognize the big, orange siloutte in the sky from footage of firefighting during the horrific fires in Australia last summer. Being able to lift copious amounts of water and dropping it on unsuspecting fires will result in a smoking pile of charcoal - but no fire. Thanks to its versatile nature, the Erickson Air-Crane could play a major role in fighting off the fires.
