The Versatile Sky Crane Helicopter

The Sky Crane, initially designed for military use, is a versatile helicopter capable of lifting heavy loads. It was developed by Sikorsky and ordered by the American Army for aircraft recovery. With a capacity to lift over 9000 kilograms, it found applications in civilian sectors like construction and offshore oil rig deliveries. Its ability to deliver loads without landing makes it valuable in emergencies. Currently, Ericsson Air Crane owns the rights and leases it globally.
