The S-70UAS U-Hawk is a modified UH-60L, removing the cockpit to create an uncrewed platform for logistics.
After experimenting with the MATRIX autonomy suite and the optionally piloted Black Hawk, Sikorsky introduced the S-70UAS U-Hawk, a fully autonomous utility helicopter, at the Association of the United States Army (AUSA) 2025 on Oct. 13, 2025.
The U-Hawk is a versatile autonomous aircraft that transforms one of the world’s most proven helicopter platforms into a fully uncrewed system.
The aircraft was developed in just ten months, replacing the Black Hawk’s cockpit with actuated clamshell doors and a forward loading ramp, resulting in 25 percent more cargo space than a conventional UH-60L.
