Calidus AutoGyro: from wikipedia
The AutoGyro Calidus is a German autogyro, designed and produced by AutoGyro GmbH of Hildesheim.
The aircraft is supplied as a complete ready-to-fly-aircraft.
The Calidus was approved in the United Kingdom in 2010 in a modified form as the RotorSport UK Calidus.
The Calidus features a single main rotor, a two-seats in tandem enclosed cockpit
with a complete aerodynamic cockpit fairing, tricycle landing gear with wheel pants
and a four cylinder, air and liquid-cooled, four-stroke, dual-ignition 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912 engine
or turbocharged 115 hp (86 kW) Rotax 914 engine in pusher configuration.
The aircraft fuselage is made from composites and is a faired teardrop shape to
ensure smooth airflow over the variable pitch pusher propeller.
The design incorporates vibration dampers that greatly reduce the level of main rotor vibration
transmitted to the cockpit.
The design is noted for both its cruise speed of 160 km/h (99 mph) and range of 800 km (500 mi).
It was developed into the side-by-side configuration AutoGyro Cavalon.

Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk : from wikipedia
The Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk is a four-bladed, twin-engine, medium-lift utility helicopter manufactured by Sikorsky Aircraft.
Sikorsky submitted the S-70 design for the United States Army's Utility Tactical Transport Aircraft System (UTTAS) competition in 1972.
The Army designated the prototype as the YUH-60A and selected the Black Hawk as the winner of the program in 1976, after a fly-off competition with the Boeing Vertol YUH-61.
The UH-60A entered service with the Army in 1979, to replace the Bell UH-1 Iroquois as the Army's tactical transport helicopter.
This was followed by the fielding of electronic warfare and special operations variants of the Black Hawk.
Improved UH-60L and UH-60M utility variants have also been developed.
Modified versions have also been developed for the U.S. Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard.
In addition to U.S. Army use, the UH-60 family has been exported to several nations.
Black Hawks have served in combat during conflicts in Grenada, Panama, Iraq, Somalia, the Balkans, Afghanistan, and other areas in the Middle East.

CH-46D Sea Knight |
Author: Jason
Simpson |
The CH-46D Sea Knight helicopter is used by the Navy for shipboard delivery of cargo
and personnel. The CH-46E is used by the Marine Corps to provide all-weather,
day-or-night assault transport of combat troops, supplies and equipment. Troop
assault is the primary function and the movement of supplies and equipment is
secondary. Additional tasks may be assigned, such as combat support, search
and rescue, support for forward refueling and rearming points, aeromedic
evacuation of casualties from the field and recovery of aircraft and
personnel.
The CH-46 Sea Knight was first procured in 1964 to meet the medium-lift
requirements of the Marine Corps in all combat and peacetime environments
since that time. The Navy Sea Knight fleet is scheduled to be replaced
by September 2004 with the MH-60S Knighthawk.

Seahawk |
Author: Jason
Simpson |
|
The Seahawk is an integral part of the ship's weapons and sensor
systems. With its unique sensor suite and integrated weapons
systems the helicopter extends the combat radius of the ship by
finding, localising and attacking where appropriate, surface or
submarine targets either independently or in conjunction with
other forces.
A typical Seahawk mission involves up to three hours of low
level operations over the sea, day or night, in all weather
conditions, often recovering to a ship's deck which pitches and
rolls dramatically in heavy seas, and is generally wet with
spray.
The Seahawk's sensors include: search radar, magnetic anomaly
detector and sonics processing for both active and passive
sonobuoys. Both forward-looking infra-red and electronic support
measures are also to be fitted. The Seahawk's main weapon is the
Mk46 anti-submarine torpedo.

MD Defender |

Victor Egorov |
Although the Defender prototype took off on its first flight on August 1974, the type's ancestors had enjoyed a long and successful career long before. Based on the Model 269 (TH-55 Osage), first flown in September 1955, and the Model 369 (OH-6 Cayuse), 1,417 examples of which served with the US Army,
the Defender was Hughes's response to international demand for an affordable anti tank helicopter, based on the civilian Model 500D. Designed for those unable to afford the AH-1 Cobra or the AH-64 Apache, the Defender is easily distinguished from the Cayuse by its 'T' tail and its five blade main rotor. It also features self sealing fuel tanks and an engine inlet particle separator and can also be fitted with extra armour and a large variety of weapons and sensors. The type has enjoyed immense success and equips many air forces and law enforcement agencies around the
world.

JetRanger |

Victor Egorov |
The Bell Model 206 JetRanger is one of the most successful helicopter designs in the world. The design originated in the mid-1960s as an entry in a US Army competition for a light observation (scout) helicopter. Although Bell lost the contract, the Model 206 "JetRanger" entered the civilian market in 1967. The Model 206 has been overhauled three times, the basic shape and design are unchanged since 1967. The JetRanger is popular with news media for traffic and news reporting. In a twist, the US Army eventually selected the 206 for use as the OH-58 Kiowa, fulfilling its original role. The US Navy, Marines, and Coast Guard use 206 variants known as the TH-57 "Sea Ranger" in the Navy and Marines and the TH-67 Creek in the Army as a trainer for helicopter students.

The Cierva C-4 Autogyro
There is some controversy about the first flight
date of the C-4 but the most reliable evidence is
that on January 17, 1923, in its latest form the
C-4 made the first controlled gyroplane flight in
history, a flight which has been described as the
most significant since the first flight of the
Wright brothers.

Author:
Victor Egorov |
The first production version of the Mi-24.
During 5 years of production about 200 were
built, differed from the prototype by 120
anhedral stub-wings added to improve lateral
stability.
Wingtips were used to accommodate four 'Phalanga'
(Phalanx) anti-tank missiles, two on each side.
The operation of these helicopters, including
combat missions, contributed greatly to their
further development, upgrading and reliability
improvement.

Autogyro |

Autogyro from Wikipedia
An autogyro (from Spanish autogiro), also known as gyroplane, gyrocopter, or rotaplane, is a type of rotorcraft which uses an unpowered rotor in autorotation to develop lift, and an engine-powered propeller, similar to that of a fixed-wing aircraft, to provide thrust. While similar to a helicopter rotor in appearance, the autogyro's rotor must have air flowing through the rotor disc in order to generate rotation.

Autogyro |

Wg. Cdr. K H Wallis produced 3 autogyros for military
trials, after having been granted a special category Certificate of
Airworthiness in 1962.
They were XR-942 XR-943 and XR-944 (XR-943 was later to become rather
famous as Little Nellie).
XR-942 is depicted in this model and it was used by the British Army
until 1964.
Highly manoueverable, the was provided by a modified McCulloch 2
stroke piston engine.
The machine weighed about 143Kg and would lift more than double that
amount, and has a cruise speed of 161 Km/h.
Take off runs can be as short as 30 mtrs. or so.
Operational endurance has been reported as about 2 and half hours.
They have held every Absolute World Record for autogyro performance.
