Sikorsky, a Lockheed Martin company, recently entered into a multi-year contract with Triumph Group’s Actuation Products & Services operating company to produce equipment for the Sikorsky CH-53K helicopter.
Under the follow-on contract, Triumph will provide continuous and increased equipment deliveries of Main Rotor Blade Folding Systems, Main Rotor Lag Damper Systems, and Main Rotor Brake Systems to meet Sikorsky’s production ramp-up.
Work will be performed at Triumph’s Seattle location, and Sikorsky plans to deliver 200 aircraft under the CH-53K program of record.
“This new contract reflects Triumph’s systems and engineering expertise, which were critical in the development of these complex systems and detail components,” William Kircher, Triumph Systems & Support executive vice president, said. “Sikorsky is a valued, long-term customer, and we’re pleased to extend our partnership into the next phases of production. Triumph’s substantial shipset content on the CH-53K reflects the trust that Sikorsky places in us to deliver quality hardware on time.”
Triumph’s Actuation Products & Services company specializes in motion, control, and power systems for commercial, military, and rotorcraft aircraft.
Headquartered in Berwyn, Triumph Group works with the global aviation industry. It designs, engineers, manufactures, repairs, and overhauls aerospace and defense systems, components, and structures.
