<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Is this new airframes or just another up grade? Like what they have done with the Bradleys.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>To my eyes? A CH-53 is a CH-53. New capabilities are great, but it doesn't look too different.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Got to be better at keeping hydro fluid in than the Sea Stallion.....reminded me of my first Harley, I knew to add oil when it didn't leave a puddle! (The old saying was: Harley's don't leak oil, they just mark their spot)

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Muzzle up? Or, Muzzle down? As long as she can get the lads to the fray!
