AUSA 2025: Sikorsky Unveils Unmanned S-70 U-Hawk
Lockheed Martin's Sikorsky subsidiary unveiled an S-70U-Hawk unmanned aircraft system (UAS) prototype at the Association of the United States Army's annual symposium.
The U-Hawk is based on a repurposed UH-60L Black Hawk and features 25% more cargo space than the original aircraft.
For the U-Hawk, the company "completely removed the cockpit, the pilot, and also the crew chief stations of the aircraft" - Ramsey Bentley, Sikorsky Advanced Programs Business Development director
- The U-Hawk has clamshell doors on the nose that open to the side, allowing them to function while the rotor spins.
