Pilots for Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 463 fly the CH-53E Super Stallion at Landing Zone Westfield, Nov. 7. Approximately 70 Marines spent the last month and a half assembling the new aircraft, and the new addition to the squadron is bigger, faster and stronger than its predecessor. The new features include an extra rotor blade, mid-air refueling probes, which gives the helicopter a longer-range capability, an in-flight hydraulic servicing system, an advanced radar system and a 72,000 pound lift capacity.
