U.S. Navy Seahawk gets enhanced sensor systems
Lockheed Martin is demonstrating the versatility of the U.S.

Lockheed Martin is demonstrating the versatility of the U.S. Navy’s Seahawk helicopter, for which the company installs and integrates the avionics equipment, as well as the sensor systems. On delivery of the airframe from Sikorsky, Lockheed Martin undertakes the extensive equipment installation that over the years has been progressively updated.

Indeed, responding to a U.S. Navy helicopter master plan, Lockheed Martin undertook the development of a common cockpit that meets all the operational needs for both the H-60R and H-60S Seahawk models. The effectiveness of the consolidation seems apparent from a demonstration on the Lockheed Martin stand (E636), where two display monitors provide a pilot’s view of both an instrument display and the outside world.
