Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation är ett amerikanskt företag som tillverkar flygplan och helikoptrar. Det grundades 1923 av Igor Sikorsky. 1942 kunde företaget börja tillverka världens första fullt fungerande enkelrotorförsedda helikopter.

Den tidigare ägaren United Technologies sålde företaget år 2015 till Lockheed Martin. Sikorsky blev omgående en del av Lockheeds dotterbolag Lockheed Martin Mission Systems and Training.^[1]^[2]
