The CH-148 Cyclone will replace the CH-124 Sea King as Canada’s main ship-borne maritime helicopter. This state-of-the-art aircraft will fill the Canadian Forces’ operational demands well into the 21st century.
The Cyclone will conduct Surface and Subsurface Surveillance and Control, utility and search and rescue missions. It will also provide tactical transport for national and international security efforts. This twin-engine helicopter is compatible with the latest high-tech naval frigates and includes several new safety features. Its aluminum and composite airframe is built with lightning-strike and high-intensity radio frequency pulse protection. The aircraft also incorporates flaw tolerance and engine burst containment.
The Cyclone has a day-and-night flight capability, and can fly in most weather conditions in temperatures ranging from -51°C to +49°C. With a maximum cruise speed of 250 km/h, the CH-148 is approximately 10% faster than a Sea King. The Cyclone can also fly 450 km without refuelling.


In Nov 2004, Sikorsky was awarded two separate, yet interrelated contracts. The first contract is for the delivery of 28 fully integrated maritime helicopter, a simulation and training suite, integrated logistic support and ship modifications. The second contract is for the 20-year in-service support of the helicopters. Delivery of the first helicopter was anticipated in Jan 2009.
The government has recently been informed by the prime contractor of a delay in the planned delivery date for the CH148 Cyclone helicopter. Government representatives are currently conducting a detailed review of all aspects of the contractor's schedule to determine how to minimize the impact of these delays and to ensure that they will not affect the key performance and airworthiness requirements of the Canadian Forces.
The Maritime Helicopter Project has faced its share of challenges, but the Government of Canada and the Department of National Defence are confident and determined that it will result in an unrivaled helicopter at the forefront of modern technology.
