Sikorsky is the largest business line within Lockheed Martin’s Rotary and Mission Systems (RMS) business area, which had revenue of USD11.8 billion in the first nine months of 2020. Sikorsky’s military products include the UH-60 Black Hawk multi-role helicopter and the CH-53K King Stallion heavy-lift helicopter.
