The MH-53E Sea Dragon is a heavy-lift helicopter used by the U.S. Navy primarily for airborne mine countermeasures, as well as transport and logistics missions. Developed from the CH-53 Sea Stallion, the MH-53E features advanced avionics, enhanced cargo capabilities, and powerful twin engines, making it capable of lifting heavy payloads (up to 16 tons) and operating in demanding conditions. Equipped with a sophisticated mine-sweeping system, it plays a critical role in clearing sea lanes of mines. The Sea Dragon can also perform troop transport, humanitarian missions, and search-and-rescue operations, making it a versatile asset to naval and amphibious operations.
