The Army appears to have made a pitiful decision! Best of luck!
I learned that the co-axial rotor configuration eliminates the need for a tail rotor; reducing drag and improving speed and maneuverability. You will too because they say it 3 TIMES in the video. Stellar editing.
Both V-280 and S-97 are great for Army’s QRF for time sensitive missions
Cool new helicopters. Interesting video. Thank you! 😊😊😊❤❤❤
I've got a Popular Science magazine from the early '50's, showing something similar. It's been a long desired thing, airplane speed and rotary wing landing performance.
I like this idea. Make engineering sense.
Man that Raider looks stunning even without knowing its specs...
MADE IN USA ALWAYS POWERFUL N BEAUTIFUL
Finally VTOL that makes sense
Bravo, US Force!
The huge "danger keep away" warning on the tail reminds me of the lawnmower sticker: "do not pick up and use as hedge trimmer"
The first 10 minutes could’ve been done in 45 seconds, I couldn’t go any longer!
Completely astonishing! It's surprisingly delightful and entertaining.
On 5 December 2022, the US Army selected the rival Bell V-280 Valor as the winner of the Future Long-Range Assault Aircraft program. Thus, cancelling the SB-1 Defiant.
Well they have to, because it looks like the Osprey is a widowmaker
the only thing i really would add to the one helicopter is a 2nd tail, forward of the first... why... to help hide the exhaust from the sides. think like an a-10. the way it is now, it will help protect the rear pusher/puller prop blade... but the exhaust can still be seen from the sides really easily i'd bet. maybe a short wing with the same sort of tail build on each side of the exhaust with thermal absorbing tiles, like the ones used in nasa/space x.. to absorb heat and block visibility of the exhaust? anyhow that is what came to mind for me anyhow. peace. as a bonus, if the tail is hit by the rear prop, and fails to function or perform its "duty"... then maybe the other set could help with turning when using that pusher/pull prop as well. or improve the turn rate compared to what it is now if needed.
The V280 is going to have about twice the range of the MH-60, which will be pretty important for the Pacific.
The strength and hugeness are apparent from her external appearance, and she will undoubtedly be very strong and intelligent, and she is the creation of great America. 🇺🇲👍💯
Badass, say thanks fer the ole gyrocopter, utilizing the pusher propeller
incredible helicopter
