'463L' is not just the 463L Master Pallet (HCU-6/E)—It is the USAF Materials Handling Support System 463L, adopted in 1957 to facilitate cargo handling aboard military airlift aircraft, of which the eponymous standardized pallet is a (major) component.

#aircargohistory - The RAF Puma helicopters were used for cargo, carrying up to 2 tonnes of freight internally and/or as underslung loads. They were designed for logistical support and transport, cargo being a primary function alongside troop transport and casualty evacuation.
tomjaviation.bsky.social Tom Jones @tomjaviation.bsky.social · 2d
Probably the last of a very distinct era of helicopter types operated by the U.K. military, along with the Sea King, Lynx, Gazelle etc.

2025 saw the retirement of RAF Pumas after a whopping 50+ years of service.
