IIrc, the original UH60 requirement called for a survivable heavy landing, with the undercarriage collapsing to take up part of the shock and the cabin remaining sufficiently intact to allow the passengers to survice.
The flattened airframe in the pictures shows that these requirements were not met in this test.
