Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

It's really going to help with that unobtanium mining on Pandora. Also is the narrator the retroencabulator guy?

transmorphersays...

Looks like they've combined the rear rotor from the Lockheed AH-56 Cheyenne and the dual rotor design of Kamov helicopters like the Ka-50 Blackshark.

Which are both great things to have.

Fuck yeah!! We don't need social programs and this is so much easier than figuring out health care.

I know that when I'm faced with tough economic choices in my family budget I just say, 'Fuck It', pull my kids out of college and buy myself a truck load of guns.

Merrca!!

Ickstersays...

Lots of helicopters have that capability. I have some book about helicopters from the 80s that has a publicity shot of a pair Sea Stallions or some such refueling in flight.

The most impressive part of the video to me was that it can refuel in the air.

Paybacksays...

Was Jan Michael Vincent flying one of them?

Don't worry Donald Trump is going to get a really good deal on these helicopters. It's going to be a great deal. Nobody has ever had a deal as good as this.

Khufusays...

So if this next generation helicopter is so great, why are we only seeing a CG representation? surely they've built some sort of prototype if they can make all these claims. Or are all these fantastic benefits only available in-engine with Unreal or something?

transmorphersays...

Looks like the prototype was flying a few years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNXJE2gKVK4

Well at least a few laps of the airfield anyway
