I think the new upgrade gives it a 36K lb. Lift capacity. Not sure. But its definitely badass.

[@BIGBOYSRC]

I'm happy you got your donkeys to safety with these helicopters.

An amazing helicopter with tremendous power of lifting. Would like to experience flying this air workhorse to feel the vibration of its engines. What's its maximum lifting weight?

[@optical345]

I heard 25k lbs. Not sure if that's correct. The CH-53E will lift 36k lbs

[@michaelrunnels7660]

The entire video was so zoomed in no one can possibly see what was happening. Should have tried to zoom in more to a single rivet.

[@hallvarddalen1502]

Where is all the fuel stored? I suppose the two AIRengines do not required any...

[@Pinkielover]

the orange frame , is hollow tank from cabin to tail

[@stuartmarshall2073]
