The Sikorsky HH-52 Seaguard, designated S-62 by the company, was a single-turbine-engine amphibious helicopter primarily employed in air-sea rescue operations. Introduced in 1961, the prototypes first took flight in 1958. Featuring a boat-hulled fuselage and a General Electric T58 engine driving a three-bladed rotor, the aircraft boasted an expanded maximum takeoff weight (MTOW). The U.S. Coast Guard acquired several of the initial models for use as search and rescue helicopters. A subsequent variant, the S-62C, was Sikorsky’s designation for the HH-52A Seaguard.
Red Box is delighted to present an extensive range of ground power and support equipment tailored for this aircraft, comprising tugs, ground power units, start power units and more, precisely designed to meet the specific requirements of the Sikorsky S-62C aircraft.
This selection includes the 709 tug, and the RBSC100 continuous power unit, ideal for diagnostic work, pre-flight checks, or continuous powering of equipment during operations, without depleting the onboard aircraft batteries. The Twin RB50A is available for starting the aircraft, mitigating the risk of hot starts. Additionally, we provide a combination of start and continuous power in a single unit for the Sikorsky S-62C aircraft in our TC3000 range.
