Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation
 PROFILE
Helicopters made by United Technologies' subsidiary Sikorsky Aircraft can be found hard at work in military, corporate, and commercial applications. The US Army and National Guard use more than 1,500 of Sikorsky's Black Hawk helicopters for war and peacekeeping missions, as well as for drug prohibition and disaster relief missions. Sikorsky's S-76 civil helicopter is designed for offshore oil, hospital, and corporate use. The RAH-66 Comanche, developed with Boeing, can fly sideways or backwards at 70 mph and is more difficult to detect by radar than Boeing's Apache. Sikorsky is also developing the Cypher, a UFO-like unmanned air vehicle for military and civil purposes. Sikorsky sells its aircraft in about 40 countries.
