Read a story where a Huey in Vietnam took a round through the short shaft between the turbine and the rotor. And a round that trashed the collective. So they were trying to autorotate while listening to a runaway turbine screaming unloaded at full throttle. And hoping they could get out before the turbine shredded itself. As I recall, they crashed, and the bird tipped sideways. The crew chief, a hero, cut the fuel lines with his emergency knife shut off the engine. High pucker factor.

I was a passenger in a Gazelle in Canada's arctic quite a few times during remote highway construction projects in the 1970s. I think it is a graceful and beatiful design, an icon of helicopter technology.
@scottr9900 2 жыл бұрын
The Huey was designed for a very permissive environment. Opposing ground fire was not anticipated. Adding weapons systems made them heavy, and therefore even more vulnerable. Adding armored seats, slower. Flak vests for the pilots/crew, slower. Cruise in Vietnam was like 90-100kts. The Gun birds were the slowest, having to make running takeoffs, as they couldn’t make a takeoff from a hover. The Dustoff birds were as light as possible, and could make that top speed you mention.

I've not finished the video yet, am at the point where you switched helicopters. I am, however, really impressed with the Gazelle. Cap, you were flying it like a fixed wing and getting away with it! You had no problems with rolls, loops, Immelman, etc. This leads me to wonder what the Gazelle could do if its pilot were to fly using some of the tactics of fixed wing dogfighting, as in 1 circle/2 circle, energy management etc. The Gazelle has the advantage in speed, agility, and especially the agility in 3 dimensions (loop, Immelman/split S, roll); it's primary disadvantage is inability to take damage due to thin skin/lightweight construction. If it were to be flown with an eye to avoiding the one circle nose fight (in which the Gazelle only needs to be hit once by heavier shells to be taken down), focusing instead on the two circle where the Gazelle intentionally remains on the Huey's 6 by flying lag and then tightening down, I don't really see a way it could lose. Any chance you guys might try this?

@skyhorseprice6591 2 жыл бұрын
@@camilled3752 Holy crap! That is living _dangerously!_ I guess it's the price the designers were willing to pay in order to get that agilty. There aren't a lot of helicopters that can perform BFM like a fixed wing jet. It probably takes a wizard of a pilot to pull those maneuvers in combat while being constantly defensive even when aggressively getting on the opponent's 6 without taking _any_ rounds. I have always maintained that speed and agility will never become irrelevant. Combat situations in which those qualities are needed certainly do not occur now as frequently as they did in WW II or Korea, but...and it's a _big_ but!....(oh shit lol see what I just did there? ....a BIG but...< _a big BUTT, and I cannot lie🤣🥲😹😅😂_ > despite what the experts say, situations will arise in combat that will be utterly unexpected by mission planners. You may never dogfight in combat, (here comes that BIG BUTT), _BUTT_ if you only have to dogfight once in your entire career as a military pilot, whether fixed wing, rotary wing, variable-TOMCATS-sweep wing, that one time makes having an agile, fast aircraft priceless. Because in a dogfight, only one flies away. I would certainly want to be the one who flies away, which would tend to make me pick the Gazelle. _BUTT_ (I can't stop with that lol🤣), that paper thin skin you mentioned just now, that sets me back a bit.

Regarding the difference in climb rate; the Huey might have a slight advantage in power:weight but the Gazelle is so much lighter and so much more streamlined I think that's what makes up the difference. Plus (without knowing specifics, I'm just speculating) the tri-rotor of the Gazelle might mean more responsive lift input vs the Huey's big slow bi-rotor. Possibly something to do with lift generated per rotation or something. I'm guessing here 😅

What i don't understands is, can't a helicopter rotate on a dime? Why can't you just turn the body of the helicopter while hovering? That way u don't have to take those long drawn out turns with forward momentum. U can get shots on target at will. It's what Damp Sock does all the time.

Another item that I’m not sure is modeled, and I don’t know what effect it might have. Temp and humidity. Density altitude is a big thing with rotary wing aircraft. A hot, dry day, vs. a very humid cool day could actually have an effect on lift and turn.
@Decrepit_biker 2 жыл бұрын
Cap.... someone should do a Blue Thunder mod or the Gazelle..... in reality real movie used a modded Gazelle afterall .. also...the Gazelle has an extra rotor blade, so for a similar power to weight would produce more lift, hence the better performance! Having seen footage of real Gazelle in low level action I could well belive it is as lithe as depicted in this video!
