The Sikorsky S-64 Skycrane is an American twin-engine heavy-lift helicopter. It is the civil version of the United States Army's CH-54 Tarhe. The S-64 Aircrane is the current production version, manufactured by the Erickson Air-Crane company.

There is a version of the Aircrane with significant updates, for the Compositor rendering framework in this repository (March 2020). See the development thread for details.

The Cargo Towing Addon is compatible with the Aircrane (June 2020).
