Aircraft Background & System Overview



The S-61T medium-lift rotary-wing aircraft is a single rotary wing, twin turbine powered helicopter. Originally developed for the US Department of State by the Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation in close collaboration with Carson Helicopters; the aircraft was operated in remote and austere locations throughout Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as at times from forward operating base locations under primitive conditions and at other times from international airports executing instrument approaches. This mission required that the aircraft have personnel and cargo carrying capacity, long range and flight endurance listed in the Specification section of this document. Operations were often flown in very rugged, high mountainous terrain that requires optimum take off, climb, and turn performance at high density altitudes. These aircraft served in remote areas with few bases from which to operate aircraft. Secondary missions which the S-61T is capable of include but are not limited to, force protection, convoy escort, hostile force reconnaissance, quick-reaction-force (QRF) movement and support, and medical evacuation, including the capacity to install stretchers. The fuselage is a metal semi-monocoque construction subdivided into five major sections. Avionics include a glass cockpit and digital communications management suite. The forward fuselage section and hull consist of the pilot compartment, engine compartment, transmission compartment, cabin and fuel tanks. The electronics-radio compartment is in the forward portion of the hull. Above the electronics-radio compartment and forward of the cabin, is the pilot compartment that is entered from the cabin. The engine compartment is above and in the forward portion of the cabin. Both turbine engines are mounted side by side in the engine compartment with the engine shafts pointed aft into the main gearbox. Directly aft of the engine compartment is the transmission compartment housing the main gearbox. The main rotor assembly, to which the five main rotor blades are attached, is splined to the main gearbox’s main rotor drive shaft. Shafting also extends aft from the main gearbox lower housing to the intermediate and tail gearboxes to drive the tail rotor. Directly below the engine and transmission compartments is the cabin.



The cabin is 19 feet 3 inches long (5.86 m), 6 feet 6 inches wide (1.98m), and 5 feet 10 inches (1.77m) high. The cabin may be entered either through the sliding cargo door on the right aft side of the cabin or through a hinged personnel door on the left side of the cabin. Entrance to the pilot compartment is through the cabin. A well in the cabin floor contains avionics equipment, lighting dimmers, and the auxiliary battery. The tail cone section extends aft from the rear cabin bulkhead. The tail pylon is attached to the rear of the tail cone. A horizontal stabilizer is installed on the upper right-hand side of the pylon. The intermediate gearbox is installed on the lower portion of the pylon with a shaft extending upward to the tail rotor gearbox past the top of the pylon. The five-blade tail rotor is splined to the tail rotor gearbox.



Systems Description



Powerplant



The S-61T helicopter is powered by two General Electric T58-GE-402 axial flow gas turbine engines of the turboshaft type, mounted side by side above the cabin, forward of the main gearbox.



Rotor System



The rotor systems consist of a single main lifting rotary wing and an anti-torque tail rotor. Both systems are driven by the two engines through the transmission system and are controlled by the flight controls. Composite main rotor blades are standard for improved performance, reduced maintenance and improved damage tolerance. Metal tail rotor blades are standard.



Transmission System



The transmission system consists of three gearboxes that transmit power to the rotary wing and tail rotor. The three gearboxes are the Main Gearbox (MGB), Intermediate Gearbox (IGB) and the Tail Gearbox (TGB). The MGB, IGB and TGB all include a chip detector system, in addition the MGB includes an Emergency

Lubrication System and is a fully upgraded 24000 series Gearbox.



Fuel System



The helicopter is equipped with a pressure-type fuel system; however, it may also be filled through a conventional gravity feed. The fuel system consists of a five cell system which together holds up to approximately 848 Gallons of usable fuel.



Electrical Power Supply System



The electrical power supply system consists of both AC and DC systems. The DC power supply system comprises two identical generation and bus systems. The AC power supply system is powered by two ac generators, mechanically driven by the accessory section of the MGB and normally generates all electrical

power. A battery-operated inverter supplies AC power to a limited number of systems when generator power is not available. The electrical system battery system consists of two 24-volt, 28-amp hour, lead acid batteries, one in the nose section and one under the floor behind the cockpit. The S-61T electrical system is

completely new with Commercial off the shelf (COTS) components for reduced obsolescence and reduced maintenance.



Lighting Equipment



All lights operate on direct current and are protected by circuit breakers on the pilot, copilot and center circuit breaker panels. Interior lights consist of instrument lights, upper console lights, lower console lights, lighted switches, cockpit dome light, pilot compartment spotlights, cabin dome lights. Cabin lights can be switched

from Night, Day and NVG modes. External lights consist of flood lights, hover lights, controllable spotlights, position lights, anti-collision lights, droop stop light. External lights can be switched from IR, OFF and norm. IR enables all position, hover and anti-collision lights to emit only infrared light and disables all exterior visible lights except for the rotorhead light for covert operations. Norm mode is NVG compatible.



Flight Control Servo Hydraulic Systems



The flight control servo hydraulic system consists of a primary and an auxiliary flight control servo system. Both servo systems operate from independent hydraulic systems and both use similar servo hydraulic units to vary the rotary wing and tail rotor blade pitch through the mechanical linkage of the regular flight control system.



Flight Control System



The flight control system consists of the rotary wing flight control system, the tail rotor flight control system and the flight control hydraulic power supply system. An ASE is installed that when engaged provides corrections of limited authority to the flight control system to cause the helicopter to respond in a stable manner to the maneuver referenced by the positions of the flight controls. A beeper trim system is installed to provide cyclic stick feel.



Automatic Stabilization Equipment



The Automatic Stabilization Equipment (ASE) improves the handling characteristics of the helicopter and permits hands-off automatic flight. The ASE has attitude and directional stabilization modes of operation.



Landing Gear System



The S-61T is equipped with fixed landing gear for increased performance and reliability.



Interior



The S-61T interior consists of a light-weight sound-damping utility interior. Lightweight stroking utility seats provides for impact attenuated accommodation occupants. These seats have been certified up to 16g forward crash loads and meets latest FAA rotary wing crashworthiness guidelines. Seats are easily removable in minutes for switching from cargo to passenger transport missions.



EFIS/EICAS Display System



The S-61T EFIS consists of two identical stations, each consisting of two identical IDU-680P displays attached sensors and reversionary switches. Each station is a complete flight instrument, navigation, engine indication, and systems status presentation that provides information to the crew via computer generated displays. The Pilot Flight Instruments (PFI) occupies the top half of the outboard IDU-680P EFIS display during normal operations.



Anti-Icing System



Depending on whether or not an engine advanced protection system (EAPS) is installed, the anti-icing system provides ice protection for the engine air inlets, the engine start fairings and the windshield. The engine air inlets are anti-iced by electrically heating the intake duct, while compressor bleed air provides anti icing of the engine start fairing and mounting struts. Electrical heating of the windshield provides deicing of both the pilot and copilot windshield.



Load Cell



The load cell system displays the weight of the load carried on the cargo hook. The hook load indicator includes a programmable front panel and internal back lighting system.



Cargo Hook



The Cargo hook provides a means to engage lift and transport external loads up to 11,000 lbs. The hook assembly has an electrical release, a cable emergency release system and a manual release knob. The Cargo hook includes scale, load sensor, and cabin indicator.
