Very nice, thanks.

I worked in Bloomfield on Cobra Blades and Sheetmetal from 1980-1994.

I worked at Kaman in Windsor Locks next to Bradley Field from 68 to 72.. Great memories.

Right now there is one K-MAX clearing trees right outside my window. Sooooo cool, been watching it all morning

its a beautiful aircraft. to me the Sea King is like the family car where as the Kamen is like the two door sports version, the coupe.

she got OF?

Why was production stopped? Just read about it.

May I ask if they can lift my self-esteem?

I just saw a seasprite in the local air museum

I was a member of the UH2C-D program for LAMPS in the 70's. We had the only 2 Kamans in the world configured for the Test program. Wound up in Vietnam for weapons detection. Later in the U.S., while testing for LAMPS, we discovered a Russian sub; unknown to be there at the time. Following LAMPS I was with COM7THFLT on an UH-2C attached to the Admiral on USS Oklahoma City and we were involved in an 21 person rescue off the Scarborough Shoals; we picked up the first 11 persons out of the water. The two most satisfying points in my life before or since. We got 2 Presidential Citations for these accomplishments and all due to a Kaman helicopter model that still serves around the world today!

Oh, so that's how you pronounce it

HH43 헬리콥터를 더욱 발전시켜야 한다 가장 많은 구조와 응급 환자를 살린 헬리콥터로 역사에 남기는 영광을 KAMAN

I can’t believe pilots fly these. Just so much that can go wrong.

It's not a sports car. It's a truck. It's made to do one thing...external loads. If you need speed you get another type of helicopter.

The only way you can fly it with no butts is unmanned and that isn't fun at all.

Nice pics ,,, dodgy voice over though ...

These twin rotor helis are the bomb. As stable as a quad, or more so. Can lift more than their own weight. No tail rotor. Autonomous flight capable. Easily outfitted with weapons, or Firefighting equipment, observation gear. Single pilot only required. Externally mounted instrumentation so pilot can keep eyes on the load. Very simple controls. 2 foot pedals, 1 joystick. Top notch performance. Agile, fast, nimble, ready to work. Wow, what fantastic design.

To fly is heavenly, to hover divine. Rotary wing aviation there is simply no substitute. A CH 53 will pick up that K-Max with it's 6000 pound load and fly away with it. FLY NAVY!!!

Hello I would like it for reforestation Cost please

Is this the facility in CT or do they have one down south?

Самый удивительный и простой из вертушек .

The Japanese term Wabi-Sabi comes to mind.

🌹🌹🌹

Will China start manufacturing Kmax?

Can i get it with extended tow mirrors?

Good machine.

Would have been cool if the paint job mimicked a dragonfly...!? 🤔☺️

Pretty neat technology! In flight track and balance capability. Kaman builds some very mission capable aircraft!

as a kid my brother and I got to climb aboard one of the first Navy Seasprites at an airshow at Lakehurst NAS...To this day I still say that the Seasprite was the proto type for all other jet engined helicopters,and that includes Sikorsky and Bell...Kaman was light years ahead of the pack...and I also turned 70 this year ...

Goofy looking but it’s obviously a great design.

perfect

Worked on these back in 1980 N.A.S Norfolk.HSL-30.They look even better now.

I'd love to work at Kaman, unfortunately it seems they don't have a lot of technician openings. Maybe turnover is very low.

A man has fallen in river Get it LEGO city

So does it cost as much as a truck or still that much that the customers expect a bit more flexibility?

Surprised how soon it was on its own wheels. It looks like with a trestle and crane you could do almost any repair in the field!

Was there in 09.was cute to watch a robot take 20 times our time

this is rad

You know a great aircraft when after they stop building them, they decide to reopen the line. This was long ago, not SH-2Gs. Seasprite and Vigilante are two of those great aircraft.

I thought it was ugly at first glance, but after watching a number of videos I am starting to like it

A third K Max is being purchased.

Admit it guys, we're all here because of the Lego City Meme

H E Y

We need to hurry guys! A man a fallen into the river in Lego City!

Hey

Me when a man falls into the river in Lego City

That is one ugly looking helicopter

Been there, done that. And, all done doing it.

This was great to see!! Really love the overall design of the K-Max. Nothing more beautiful than a purpose-built machine. Always amazes me how quiet they are, too! The only thing that puzzles me a bit is the tail boom. The Huskie seemed to do well without it, and there's no tail rotor, so why stick a conventional tail boom on it that sticks out beyond the rotor discs? I'm no engineer, so I'm asking honestly, not being a smart-ass. Again, beautiful machine and I'm happy to see/hear they're back in production!

В добрый путь. И идея вертолета хорошая.
