Why do People Admire the Design and Functionality of the Westland Sea King helicopter?

The S61 helicopter is perhaps one of the most successful rotary aircraft ever built, and the Westland Sea King is a British license-built version of the famous Sikorsky, built by Westland Helicopters (now Leonardo). The Sea King is known primarily as an anti-submarine warfare helicopter, it also operates in the Royal Navy as Search and Rescue version, Commando lift version, and AEW then Airborne Surveillance and Control version. Compared with the US SH-3 Sea King, the Westland WS-61 Sea King is significantly different. It was equipped with Rolls-Royce Gnome engines, British-made anti-submarine warfare systems and fully computerized flight control systems. The helicopter is 17m long (55 ft 10 in), high (16 ft 10 in), empty weight tons, and maximum takeoff weight is 9.7 tons.
