The CH-53 helicopter has been a potent member of the U.S. Marine Corps aviation community’s fleet for over 40 years, but the newest version takes the platform to a whole new level.
The CH-53K has undergone extensive developmental testing that utilized the degraded visual environment (DVE) test course at U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground (YPG) for more than two years, most recently to verify software updates in the flight control software that have been made as a result of this testing.
