The Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk is a four-blade, twin-engine, medium-lift utility military helicopter manufactured by Sikorsky Aircraft. Sikorsky submitted the S-70 design for the United States Army 's Utility Tactical Transport Aircraft System (UTTAS) competition in 1972.

The rugged, versatile BLACK HAWK and its family of variants are trusted around the world for critical missions from air assault to emergency response. Sikorsky has built more than 5,000 HAWK aircraft for 36 nations worldwide.

Utility version of the BLACK HAWK helicopter, with a max gross weight of 9,979 kg (22,000 lbs), transports 12 fully equipped, seated troops in combat. Sikorsky offers customization for additional mission sets.

The BLACK HAWK® Helicopter is the world’s most versatile utility helicopter with 4,000 flying worldwide in 36 countries and 15 million flight hours, including over 5 million combat hours.

With its increased power and strengthened cargo hook, the UH-60L could transport the M1036 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle, HMMWV, weighing 8,750 lb. The Army’s operational and combat experience indicated the need for features and equipment that were not envisioned when the Black Hawk program began.

The UH-60M Black Hawk looks much like the first S-70/UH-60A helicopter, but new structures and systems gave the UH-60 Mike-model more lift and range, improved flying qualities, enhanced readiness, and an integrated cockpit with digital connectivity.

The UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter is the U.S. Army’s primary medium-lift utility transport and air assault aircraft. It is a twin-engined medium-lift utility helicopter.

The UH-60A was the first model of the long Black Hawk helicopter series that officially started on December 23, 1976 when Sikorsky was selected by the U.S. Army to build a production version of its YUH-60A Utility Tactical Transport Aircraft System (UTTAS) prototype.
