Sikorsky
Sikorsky is an
American helicopter manufacturer founded in 1923 by
Russian born
American Igor Sikorsky, the inventor of the first successful helicopter design, upon which the majority of subsequent helicopters were based (though he did not invent the helicopter itself). The company is now a subsidiary of United Technologies Corporation, but remains one of the leading helicopter manufacturers, producing such well-known models as the
Black Hawk and
Sea Hawk, as well as some experimental ones like the
Sikorsky X-wing.
