I like this design over the compound coaxial helicopter shown yesterday. It looks faster, more aerodynamic, and probably has a lower radar signature from the front. It would be even nicer if it had an ISR pod on top of the rotor assembly so the helicopter could peek over mountain tops or tree lines, laser designate targets without exposing the entire aircraft.

@originalSPECTER 4 жыл бұрын

With any luck, we'll at least purchase a few of them. Fast and cheap is always good to have on-hand. I wonder if they'll put stealth paneling on it? Then it basically is a 2022 Comanche. Also, I approve of anything that looks like it came from Command and Conquer.

The apache has 4 different weapons system but this looks only like it's just got 8 missile and a cannon also does it have chaff/flares and a ir jammer. looks great steath too but at what cost it going to be more then £46 million. But it about time there's going to be a new gunship because the apache both UK and US will go about 2035.

affordability should not be a central criterium. Pilots are and always will be less replaceable than the machines they are flying. So you should be looking to multiply the combat capability through the machine as much as you can no matter the cost, until you reach a point where it takes as long to build the machine as it takes to educate the pilot. Just my two cents from studying WW2; present and future wars might be different but I don't see a scenario where cheaper aircraft gives you an advantage unless we're talking transport or drones (where pilots are not exposed). Different story with ground/sea forces ofc.
