Sikorsky Aerospace Services To Add Refueling Capabilities To 13 USAF H-60s

Fueling Probe Contract Worth Roughly $2 Million

Sikorsky Aerospace Services announced Monday a contract to supply the US Air Force with 13 aerial refueling assemblies for H-60 helicopters.

"The refuel assemblies enable in-flight aircraft refueling, which increases the helicopters' range, saving valuable time and expanding the mission and role of the aircraft," said George Mitchell, Director, Sikorsky Aerospace Services, Material Logistics and Spares.

Sikorsky Aerospace Services supplies the fuel probe assemblies as an aftermarket option for H-60 aircraft. The contract value is approximately $2 million.

Sikorsky Aerospace Services, Sikorsky Aircraft Corp.'s aftermarket business, includes Derco Aerospace, Inc., Helicopter Support, Inc., Sikorsky Aerospace Maintenance, Composite Technology, Inc., and Sikorsky Aircraft Australia - Helitech, and offers complete aftermarket support solutions globally.
