Great picture! Looks like it has 2 turbo prop engines installed, airflow tufts on top of both wings, and a video camera mounted on top of the vertical stabilizer, I wonder if the notoriously loud Wright YT49-W-1 engines or the original jets made more noise?

U.S. Navy Sikorsky MH-53E prototype, Florida, 15 April 1984. The helicopter is towing a magnetic-influence hydrofoil
vehicle during dynamic tow tests off Panama City. Production deliveries of the helicopter are scheduled to begin in late
1986.
