The Westland Sea King is the British version of the Sikorsky S-61 helicopter, widely used since the 1970s by armed forces in such countries as the United Kingdom, Germany, India, Norway, and several Middle Eastern countries. The helicopter served mainly as a rescue (SAR) aircraft, for anti-submarine warfare, as well as for transport. One of the most famous episodes involving the Sea King was the Falklands War (1982), where the helicopters played a key role in rescue operations and in supporting Royal Marines landings. Its period of service is modern times, from the 1960s up to the early 21st century.
