Sikorsky S-75 Sikorsky S-75 The Sikorsky S-75 was a proof-of-concept all-composite helicopter. Sikorsky Aircraft used all-composite materials to replace metal to provide greater strength, lighter weight, lower manufacturing costs, and reduce maintenance costs. The Sikorsky S-75 was developed under the US Army's Advanced Composite Airframe Program (ACAP), the goal of which was the development of an all-composite helicopter fuselage, lighter and less costly to build than predominantly metal airframes in support of the Light Helicopter Experimental (LHX) program. In February 1981, contracts were awarded to Sikorsky and Bell Helicopter, with Bell submitting its Model D292. The S-75 flew for the first time
Sikorsky (crater) named after Igor Sikorsky, a Russian-American aviation pioneer. By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Sikorsky. Sikorsky (crater) Sikorsky is a crater on the far side of the Moon. It is situated behind the southeastern limb of the Moon, just out of sight from the Earth. It lies to the northwest of the huge walled plain Schrödinger. To the northwest is the smaller crater Moulton. In 1967 the Lunar Orbiter 4 photographed this region in high resolution, discovering a 310-km-long gouge cutting through
