Well shit, I had no idea the Mi-28 was almost totally hollow inside with a crawlspace for several people...

pretty cool
Jump to 16:11 to see the cool bits that OP is talking about.
So it looks like the skin of the aircraft carries the loads.
That's some fucky math whoever designed it.
I thought it was well known that there was this space there.
The term you're looking for is monocoque.
Newfags who started browsing after 2015 tend to not know shit about things that are supposedly well known. All they know is Russia evil.
cool shit. thx.

Can hold people in the back......OMG ITS THE FUCKING MODERN HIND. I love these russian fucks.
no it doesn't, if it did a few bullet holes would cause catastrophic failure
aircraft design - What is the difference between a monocoque ...
A monocoque fuselage has its skin holding the skeleton structure together while the semi-monocoque has both the skin and the skeleton holding together. Semi-monocoque also has "stringers" running horizontally down the plane to help hold the frame together.
There's actually a similar cavity on the Apache in about the same place, though I don't have any pictures. You're not allowed to have people ride in there however, supposedly it gets too hot when the engines are running.
Breddy cool.
So what carries the forces in the tail? Is there some ribbing on the inside?
Get the fuck off this board
Lolwut? Eveybody knows this since the Cold War, what the fuck is this influx of faggots that don't even lurk for 2 years before posting?
I seriously doubt the Apache is large enough to carry a few people internally.
Not exactly a secret either, but a lot of people dont realise that the ov-10 bronce also has a comparment for medivac or 6 paras...
thats the mi24 fuckface
There must be a rescued hostages compartment in an apache, according to Desert Strike i used to play on my amiga... :-)
It's not shown on the illustration, but it's in a straight line from the viewer behind the yellow-colored open engine cover in the middle of the picture. You can definitely fit someone in there laying down, although even crouching is difficult. The access door is easily large enough to crawl through.
I think I can see what you're talking about. I think being thrown around in flight, the heat, and the tight space would probably kill them though.
Lol shut up faggot.
>medivac
How would you use it for that? Can it do STOL on rough surfaces?
Lurk more for atleast 2 years :>)
OP is talking about Mi-28 which is an entirely different beast you dumb twat
Yep there it is, 142. It extends quite far forward, you can definitely climb in there. Like I said, I've been told the heat would be fatal if you tried to ride inside, and actual emergency passengers have invariably ended up tied to the outside.
what the fuck is this influx of faggots that don't even lurk for 2 years before posting?
Fuck I loved those games. Urban Strike was amazing but nothing beats the first one.
>Can it do STOL on rough surfaces?
Yes, that what is was designed for.
Comfy as fuck, would live in.
that doesn't look comfortable at all
Real talk: why does Russia still use the Red Star despite not being commie anymore?
>it's not real communism
Americans are carried externally
Can't afford to paint over it
British Royal Marines in Afghanistan strapped themselves to an Apache.
Russia isn't evil. It's just a failed state clinging to relevancy, albeit in pretty underhanded ways.
The core is red but the outlines are white and blue. It's the colors of the Russian flag.
But it was painted, see the outlines? It represents the Russian flag, white, blue and red.
