Campaign patronage

We have an opportunity to buy a used Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter. We have named the helicopter Čestmir and we want to send it into combat as soon as possible. In our biggest ever campaign, we are not only trying to acquire one machine, but above all to alert everyone that Ukraine desperately needs a modern air force in order to defend us all from the Russian invasion.

Campaign objective

To buy a Black Hawk, one of the few in Europe in private hands. We consulted experts and the Ukrainian side on the price of about  4.5 million US Dollars. The machine dates back to the 1980s and has been inspected by Ukrainian aviation experts. It is in good condition and, if we can get it, it will be used for operations by Ukrainian military intelligence who want to deploy it on special operations and use it for pilot training. It is important to know that this organisation already owns and uses at least one of these machines.

Our objective is to raise a lot of money for Čestmír, and we really need help with that.

What will be purchased

A fully operational Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter.

The helicopter is equipped with four-bladed main and tail rotors, powered by two General Electric T700 turboshaft engines. The UH-60 has a wide range of mission applications, including troop transport, electronic warfare and aeromedical evacuation. With an internal payload of 1,200 kg or an external payload of 4,100 kg, it can carry 11 soldiers with equipment or a howitzer and crew. The avionics include a GPS navigation system and can be equipped with an ESSS wing system to carry fuel tanks and weapons up to 4,500 kg, including missiles and cruise missiles.


Transport and handover

After the purchase, we will transport Čestmír to Ukraine with the help of the Ministry of Defence of the Czech Republic, where we will hand it over to Ukrainian military intelligence, who have requested it from us.
