Help - Who can identify the type, make or model of the U.S. military helicopter and land vehicle shown in the photo below?
The helicopter appears to be a CH-53E Super Stallion, which is a heavy-lift helicopter operated by the United States Marine Corps. Its primary function is the transportation of troops, heavy equipment, and supplies during ship-to-shore movement. It is manufactured by Sikorsky Aircraft, an American aircraft manufacturer.
The military vehicle being airlifted appears to be a variant of the High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV), commonly known as the Humvee.
This vehicle is used by the U.S. military and is produced by AM General, a company based in the United States. The Humvee has been a staple in various military roles, including as a cargo and troop carrier.
Both the CH-53E Super Stallion and the Humvee are iconic pieces of military equipment known for their robustness and versatility in a wide range of military operations.
The CH-53 is, identifiable by its large size, three-engine configuration, and the seven-blade main rotor. The specific variant, the CH-53E Super Stallion, is used by the U.S. Marine Corps and is recognizable by its distinctive features such as the large size and third engine. However, without seeing specific markings or other unique identifiers, it's challenging to confirm based on the photo alone -
