testing at the firm's Stratford manufacturing plant. In January 2013, the program had an estimated cost of US$ 23.17 billion (~$ 29.9 billion in 2023) after procurement of the planned 200 CH-53Ks. In April 2013, the U.S. Navy program manager stated that work had gone well and it may become operational ahead of schedule. On 31 May 2013, the Navy awarded Sikorsky a $ 435 million (~$ 561 million in 2023) contract to deliver four prototype CH-53Ks for evaluation and mission testing; The first two prototypes focused on structural flight loads while the third and fourth validated general performance, propulsion and avionics.

In 2022, Germany decided to procure the CH-47F Chinook instead, citing interoperability advantages with other European NATO countries—especially the Netherlands—as well as the lower unit cost compared to the CH-53K, which would allow the purchase of more helicopters for the same budget. 713: 742: 2492: 961: 283:. Before this, Sikorsky had been working on an enhancement to the CH-53D, under the company designation "S-80", featuring a third turboshaft engine and a more powerful rotor system. Sikorsky proposed the S-80 design to the Marines in 1968. The Marines considered this a good, quick solution, and funded development of a testbed helicopter. Changes on the 2489: 547:
maximum gross weight will be 88,000 lb (39,900 kg), which is increased over the CH-53E's 73,500 lb (33,300 kg). The CH-53K will keep approximately the same footprint as the CH-53E. To this end, it has redesigned composite sponsons that cut overall width for a narrower footprint, which is better for shipboard service.

The initial YCH-53E first flew in 1974. Following successful testing, the initial production contract was awarded in 1978, and service introduction followed in February 1981. The US Navy acquired the CH-53E in small numbers for shipboard resupply. The Marines and Navy acquired a total of 177. For the

On 4 December 2012, Sikorsky delivered the first CH-53K, a Ground Test Vehicle (GTV) airframe. Early tests included fuel system calibration and attaching test sensors across the airframe to record temperature, aerodynamic load, pressure, and vibration. Two additional static GTVs underwent structural

The USMC had planned upgrades to retain most CH-53Es, but this effort stalled. Sikorsky proposed a new model, originally designated "CH-53X"; in April 2006, the USMC signed a $ 18.8 billion contract for 156 "CH-53K" helicopters, with deliveries to be completed by 2021. The USMC was to begin retiring

plans to receive 200 helicopters at a total cost of $ 25 billion. Ground Test Vehicle (GTV) testing started in April 2014; flight testing began with the maiden flight on 27 October 2015. In May 2018, the first CH-53K was delivered to the Marine Corps. On 22 April 2022, it was declared to have passed

In December 2018, the CH-53K was projected to not be combat ready as expected in late 2019, due to delivery delays caused by technical flaws found in testing, which resulted in a major program restructuring. Flaws included the engine re-ingesting exhaust gas, limited service life for the rotor gear

The CH-53K is to surpass the capability of its predecessor by carrying nearly 30% more than the CH-53E's external payload of 27,000 lb (12,200 kg) over the same radius of 110 nmi (204 km). The CH-53K's payload reaches a maximum of 35,000 lb (15,900 kg). The CH-53K's

The CH-53K has an improved external cargo handling system, survivability enhancements, and improvements to extend service life. The cabin will be 30 ft (9.14 m) long by 9 ft (2.74 m) wide by 6.5 ft (1.98 m) tall. Its cabin will be 1 ft (30 cm) wider and 15%

On 5 May 2014, General James F. Amos announced during the official rollout that it will be called the "King Stallion". On 27 October 2015, the CH-53K took its first flight. On 7 March 2018, one lifted a payload of 36,000 pounds (16,000 kg), the maximum weight on the single center point cargo

In 2008, design work was well underway, along with weight reduction efforts to meet operational requirements; increased engine performance and rotor blade improvements are options to help meet requirements if needed. The rotor mast tilt was decreased and components shifted to ensure the center of

On 24 January 2014, the CH-53K GTV ignited its engines, spinning the rotor head without rotors attached. Low-rate production is planned to proceed from 2015 to 2017. Initial operating capability (IOC) was set to occur in 2019, with full-rate production commencing between then and 2022. The USMC

CH-53Es in 2009, and needed replacements as rotorcraft reached their structural life limits in 2011–12. CH-53K flight testing was expected to begin in 2011. In August 2007, the USMC increased the order from 156 to 227. By that time, the first flight was planned for November 2011 with

However, the IOC fielding date was deferred to 2018. Sikorsky proposed building four pre-production aircraft for evaluation. 1467: 606:(IAF) said it would evaluate the new variant after it flies. In August 2015, it formalized a requirement for the CH-53K, listing the type as a "very high priority" item to enable the service to perform missions only the platform is capable of.
