Sikorsky S-61 H-3

S-61N

1962







Model



The S-61N made its first flight on 7 August 1962. Otherwise identical in length and performance to the S-61L, this version is optimized for overwater operations, by retaining the SH-3s side floats. Both the S-61L and S-61N were subsequently updated to Mk II standard with more powerful CT58-110 engines, vibration damping and other detail refinements.
