The '''Royal Foundry H-20 Horse''' is a medium-lift {{wp|utility helicopter}} developed for the [[Earth Army|Army]] and [[Earth Navy|Navy]] of the [[Earth Kingdom]]. Initially developed to serve as an armoured airlifter for the {{wp|air assault}} battalions of the Earth Army's [[Earth Army#Airborne Regiment|Airborne Regiment]], the helicopter first entered service in April 2016. It has since been adopted by the Earth Navy as a {{wp|Navalised aircraft|ship-based}} {{wp|Maritime patrol aircraft|maritime patrol}} helicopter and seen combat at the [[Battle of Besorrowed Gorge]].

As an [[airskiff]], the H-20 Horse is a fast, agile and small craft designed to operate from ships and airbases with a limited loitering ability. Unlike earlier unarmoured models, the H-20 Horse possesses an armoured front fuselage to withstand frontal anti-aircraft fire. The H-20 is named for the {{wp|horse}}, in recognition of the animal's versatile uses to humans; likewise, each of its variants is named after a type of horse. The H-20 Horse currently exists in three variants: the '''H-20/T Workhorse''', an armed utility helicopter and medium airlifter; the '''H-20/C Packhorse''', an unarmed {{wp|Military transport aircraft|transport}} helicopter; and the '''H-20/N Seahorse''', a naval patrol helicopter. A theoretical fourth variant, the '''H-20/A Warhorse''' {{wp|attack helicopter}}, was designed but has not yet entered production.

Today, the H-20 Horse is a ubiquitous presence in the military forces of the Earth Kingdom, functioning in a variety of naval, ground and air roles. With over thirty examples manufactured and currently operational, the H-20 Horse is both the most numerous aircraft in active service and the most-produced aircraft in history.
