Description

The CH-53A/D Sea Stallion helicopter was sold to Austria, Israel, Iran and Germany. Austria sold its two CH-53s to Israel. Israel upgraded its H-53 fleet under the CH-53 Yasur 2000 program. The CH-53G designation refers to the H-53 aircraft operated by the German Armed Forces with most of them built under license in Germany. The USMC CH-53D aircraft along with the CH-46E are planned for replacement by the MV-22 Osprey beginning in the mid/late 2010s and the CH-53K in the early 2020s.
