The Israeli Air Force acquired two Sikorsky S-55s in October 1952 from the United States which were flown by 103 Squadron. This aircraft is believed to be IAF Serial No. 02 (msn 55-992) which later joined the collection of the IAF Museum at Hatzerim AFB and received new paint. This photo is copyright © Kenneth I.
