== Development origins ==
Is [http://www.airvectors.net/avskbig_1.html#m2l] a WP:RS for the development of the CH-53? My 1962 Observer book of aircraft says that that CH-53 was a direct development of the [[Sikorsky CH-54 Tarhe]]. [[User:Mztourist|Mztourist]] ([[User talk:Mztourist|talk]]) 08:55, 19 March 2020 (UTC)

:While Air Vectors isn't really a reliable source as such, it is fairly accurate, and uses reliable sources. The information given isn't contradictory, however. The fuselage is obviously a scaled up version of the S-61/SH-3 ([[S-61R]]/CH-3C to be specific), while the dynamic systems (rotors, transmission, etc.) are from the [[S-64]], which is Sikorsky's model number for the CH-54, specifically the civil Skycrane. - [[User:BilCat|BilCat]] ([[User talk:BilCat|talk]]) 15:38, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
::So Air Vectors isn't RS. What is the RS for the fuselage development? [[User:Mztourist|Mztourist]] ([[User talk:Mztourist|talk]]) 05:03, 20 March 2020 (UTC)

:::I'll see if I can find one in my several print sources. - [[User:BilCat|BilCat]] ([[User talk:BilCat|talk]]) 05:32, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
