Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk
The UH-60 Black Hawk is the US Army's primary medium-lift helicopter, a twin-engine utility aircraft built by Sikorsky, now a Lockheed Martin company. It does air assault, medical evacuation, command and control and VIP transport. The UH-60M is the newest version in Army service, with a digital cockpit, wide-chord rotor blades and more powerful engines. The Air Force's HH-60W Jolly Green II combat rescue helicopter is built on the UH-60M. This site lists both, with the services' and the maker's published numbers and no flight data.
