Screens of Kamov's high speed helicopter design

Crazy how the US has cancelled more compound helicopters than the rest of the world has built and flown prototypes:

>Lockheed XH-51
>Lockheed AH-56 Cheyenne
>Piasecki X-49
>AURORA
>Sikorsky S-69
>Sikorsky S-72
>Bell 533

meanwhile the rest of the world:
>X-3, Ka-22, V-50

This is helicopter will have 700km\h cruise speed.

Yeah why not get something that can't take off vertically, that'll fill a helicopter role

Pretty cool

Helicopters still need ramps to take off and run ways.

??? you can take off from a parking lot with a chopper

Can someone give me a quick rundown on the pros and cons of this versus other VTOL aircraft, Ospreys and Harriers and Lightnings and so on

future helicopters could lead to manned flying saucers. speed and high maneuverability with stealth.

no. we dont get paid for.

Airwolf intensifies...

only if the parking lot is equipped with a steam catapult

there are planes that can take off vertically and also go supersonic

There is A plane that can take of vertically and also go supersonic.

another paperwaffe.
Wake me up when there's a working prototype.

>never flew supersonic
>only left is one empty husk
>ivan claims victory

alright fine, i took your bait

Does anyone have a video or still photo of the rotating gunner seat on the AH-56?

I think that's actually theoretically unachievable by a rotary-wing aircraft, but carry on gopniks

This expands halal.

Is this the stupidest comment today?

Nice, more trash into the "we cannot afford it and it was imaginary anyway" bin of Russia.

This is typical in a society where degenerate values are followed:

>Poverty, narcotics, HIV, mental health issues, homosexuality, alcoholism, low IQ, criminal behavior, indifference to all issues, low skilled doping athletes, physical weakness, suicides, government-level corruption, murderous and kleptocratic elite, degraded society, mass murders of western civilians, assassinations of journalists and political opposition, complete lack of freedom of speech, sick family values, total degeneration of culture, lying.

When will helicopter designers realize that helicopters tilt forward, and that they instantly create tons of drag in forward flight because they aren't optimized to be titled backwards when the disc is level.

The valocity of the rotors on the leading side will exceed their tolerances and snap off, there's no way around this unless you reinforce the blades to function when they're transitioning to supersonic and then back again everytime they go around. Physics just hates high speed helicopters.

Not him but significative progresses have been made, plus the model in OP is contrarotative.

>Dual rotor system
For what purpose?

It is shit like everything from that 3rd world mongoloid shithole.

Quality post dude.

I think it would be to cancel out the torque, as it appears to not have the rear stabilizer that most helicopters have.

IIRC its for designs without a tail rotor. the spinny bois moving in opposite directions help to cancel the rotational force that would otherwise make the helo want to spin.

You don't need a tail rotor, basically. The Russians (and the Kamov bureau in particular) have played with the idea extensively.

Your missing the point, contra rotating doesn't matter when the effects of the rotor passing in and out of a supersonic shockwave cause then to wobble so hard they snap. There's no getting around it unless you make the rotor 10 times heavier

Ah I see. Thank you for the information.

Ah I thought you were talking about lift issues.
Material and geometry can be improved though.

They've realized it, all right. The thing with helicopters is that, from a basic physics perspective, they're really inefficient at their fundamental job; to wit, moving a massive body through the air. You have to deal with inertia wanting to spin the airframe, the fact that forward travel at speed necessitates the sacrifice of lift, the fact that they basically can't go supersonic (theoretically possible but shockwave stresses make it an extreme engineering challenge), and a host of other minor bullshit. The only thing they have going for them is that they have the best size-to-mass ratio of any type of VTOL aircraft, and VTOL is really useful particularly for troop transport and direct fire support. And naturally you always want your transports to move as fast as possible.

The US military in general seems to prefer alternative approaches such as the Marines' tiltrotor aircraft and the F-35Bs, which suffer from fewer of the fundamental problems with helicopters, but the Russians have always valued multirole rotary-wing aircraft (look no further than the ubiquitous Hind).

>best size-to-mass ratio
more accurately, I should say they have the best size-to-LIFT ratio.

where the fuck did you find these pics??? they don't show up on reverse image search.
anyway, that chopper looks cool as fuck.

>VTOL is really useful particularly for troop transport
It's actually its only relevant use.

There are a few more minor ones, attack helicopters fill a niche for close fire support (that is being largely outmoded by more sophisticated weapons systems) and for cargo drops on shitty unprepared terrain, but in general you're right.

do you dumbasses not know anything about retreating blade stall? the blade on the retreating side must have a higher angle of attack to compensate for disymmentry of lift, at a certain point you reach a critical angle where the blade no longer produces lift. fuck nuggets talking about sonic booms n shit fuck outta here

>at a certain point you reach a critical angle where the blade no longer produces lift
That's why there are 2 rotors.

dissymmetry of lift you fuck tard

I think you don't grasp the concept.

twin rotors can go fast like sanic

But... Why?

Camel fuckers move faster than you'd think.

Looks like a J20 and a Ka52 had an accident in the quantum teleporter

Imagine if a fly came in the telepod at the last moment, that badass helicopter.

A regular fruitfly if human sized could fly at 1030mph whilst being able to instantaneously change directions at perpandicular angles, hover and land

If it does it's probably not gonna be a rotary wing aircraft anymore. It's the advancing blades versus retreating blades air speed issue. That's why the US and Britain played with stopping blade rotation, x-wing and such. Was not cost effective and had lousy range compared to a nice VTOL that actually could dogfight and CAS. US actually build and flew prototypes of a few the more odd ball pseudo-helicopters.

>Britain
They did nothing since the 60s...
