Most helicopters of the future will be drone delivery systems. Imagine an Osprey releasing 200 Switchblade drones after traveling a few hundred miles! Then imagine that Osprey was followed by 4 more Ospreys!
followed by 5 more 15 minutes later! 2,000 AI controlled Switchblades using TFR with random ones popping up to 500 metres for terrain and target surveillance then dropping down while feeding the information to the fleet and the operators. They _will_ have to be well versed in surrender signals like hands up or arms crossed in front of the body showing open hands. There was at least one incidence of a Russian surrendering to a Ukrainian drone on video. He was told where to go over a separate drone while the other kept six and his surrender was accepted. The rest of his squad was apparently already dead.
:19 The Raider is a demonstrator, never intended for production and Sikorsky lost the Army contract to produce this technology. As of today the USAF has no plans to buy Raider. 6:08 The Valor was NEVER intended to replace the Apache; that program is called FARA (Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft); no contractor has been chosen. Do some homework.
I thought the same thing. I keep up with military rotorcraft procurement and I was disappointed with how confident the narrator sounded without much factual information.
I know several Marine V-22 mechanics and they all to a man say that they hate it. It is a maintenance nightmare. If I remember correctly it costs $11,000 an hour to fly.
The V280 will be a huge improvement over the V22 in terms of maintenance. For one, the V22's engines rotated with the nacelles. That has to be a gearing nightmare. The V280's engines are fixed.
My home is in a flight path from Barksdale AFB . The other night I had just locked my car and heard a helicopter but it was so freaking quiet! It whispered, and I can just imagine how fun that has to be!!!
This is an updated Lockheed AH-56 Cheyenne with the latest technology. This AH-56 Cheyenne original design was in the 1960's. Sikorsky now owned by Lockheed, imagine that.
I believe there was an error in the ".50 caliber/50mm" A .50 cal would be 127 millimeter. I'm unaware of a 50 mm machinge gun for rotary wing aircraft. Mounting one on a rotary wing seems an odd idea.
Sikorsky Raider and Comanche , they are already 20 year old technology, it’s a legacy UTX platform that went nowhere but it is still pretty advance when compared to anything out there.
@@ecoideazventures6417 The development takes years before that, the fact is that 2015 was the year that UTC sold Sikorski to Lockheed Martin. But the developmenf unit was built at least 10 year before that.
@@ecoideazventures6417 let me share an open secret, US military tech is 20 years ahead of civilian tech, which is why just as the civilian sector makes a massive break though the US military is rolling out a peace of gear that has that at its core when it takes 10-20 years to develop
@@David-jt9nt Cope trope, notice civilian drones were more effective in current war than say switchblades etc. 20 years ahead my ass, they are 20X too expensive to be useful compared to civ tech.
1:19 "fifty millimeter caliber rifles" ... LOL Those things would make good gunships and specops platforms, but I sure hope nobody is thinking of replacing the Ospreys with these things.
@@abvmoose87 No they are not. It can fly on one, and if one egine is damaged their is a shaft inside the wing allowing one engine to rotate both props.
Civilian Osprey 05:00: 8 hours across the Atlantic? There are many routes across the Atlantic but NY to London is 5570km. The aircraft has a maximum range of 1389km and a top speed of 509km/hr. How is 8 hours possible?
The U.S. Air Force doesn't operate attack helicopters. That by way of the 1948 Key West agreement when the Army Air Corps separated from the U. S Army to form the U.S. Air Force.
i need the controls to be levers. one for up and one for down. where the lever starts would be 0 1 would hover the craft 2 would raise it up 3 would be raise it faster. another lever would move it side to side . another lever would move it forward and backwards. 0 start 1 slow 2 medium 3 max tilt for the craft. tilting the craft forwards
The Airbus looks sleek and cool but i guess its not ruly meant to operate in cities like the Ehang, which i previously commented does not look safe or sturdy. Im interested in the concept of rotorcraft operating safely in city limits one day, landing on platforms at various heights attached to building.
I would have gone with the quad copter option.. Makes these things completely obsolete... One more example of MIT control over tech advancement...... The quad was faster topend at 500 mph. Better range x 4 times. 2x lift capacity JLTV capacity internally ( 1 ) veh. Plus crew and weapons. Quicker take off and landings 5x better hovering capabilities Whisper mode And capabilities of being retrofitted with electric power plants when the tech comes out. But it's only money...
A tiltrotor is NOT a helicoptor. Its forward flight is different from both a helicopter and an airplane. The rotors of a tiltrotor in horizontal flight impart lift, similar to the lift of bird's wings in forward flight.
I disagree; Comanche (who started in the early 80s) wasn't a scout bird. Kiowa has been retired because of its outstanding OR rate against all other Army aircraft (making them look bad on paper, all Army aircraft were great). To this date, the Army doesn't have a scout aircraft god forbid they enter a real conflict without one. The Army engineers kept changing the specs on the Comanche, and after 9/11, all military funding was for the Mideast wars. That killed funding for multiple programs in all branches!
Will DESTROY Our Competitors!?? others are busy and spending resource on infrastructure developments, you are not destroying your competitors but yourself
There is NO WAY the Bell Valor tilt rotor would be a good attack VTOL machine. The Sikorsky dual rotor/pusher helicopter slimmed down to an attack helicopter airframe would be far better suited for this task. It could carry more weapons internally and externally and would be much faster than the current Apache.
Interesting question, it might be the case it burns too much fuel in vtol mode compared to rotors for it to be useful but that would only be a guess on my part. Maybe its only a matter of time.

send it to ukraine so russia can blow it to pieces .
Paying for capabilities, primarily range.
New ones are spose to be better
The 1st design goes back to 1967 with Lockheed AH-56 Cheyenne which would still outmaneuver current heli’s
My home is in a flight path from Barksdale AFB . The other night I had just locked my car and heard a helicopter but it was so freaking quiet! It whispered, and I can just imagine how fun that has to be!!!
It takes off and land like a bird, fly like a fighter jet, move like a ninja, and fight like a commando. But it is a helicopter.
its a juice weasel
Teenage mutant ninja chopper! 🤓🤓🤓
Lol it doesn’t have no where near the speed of a jet fighter but it seems pretty versatile.
The AH-56 and RAH-66 say hi. I'll believe it when it's in service.
Realy I like this powerful helicoptere

No, he didn't mean "50mm", he meant "50 mm" ... that's fifty guns, all chambered in one-mm.
@@TROOPERfarcry Hahaha!!!
That would be 12.7 mm for the equivalent of 50 caliber.
@@utGort Yes. I had hoped that I had made that point. Sorry.
127mm would be a 5inch gun, not .50 caliber or half an inch.
I need a 2023 remake of "Airwolf" but instead of using the same helicopter, pick one of those new designs with some of the new experimental weapons !
Apache attack helicopters are the best
Beautiful
0.5mm cannon? Holy hell that is tiny!!!!!
Sikorsky Raider and Comanche , they are already 20 year old technology, it’s a legacy UTX platform that went nowhere but it is still pretty advance when compared to anything out there.

I never understood why the US didn't just buy a few more of the Airwolf helicopters!😁
The V280 look so much bigger and also kinda wonder what happen if one of the propellers are damaged.
But maybe that's of little importance.
Theyre dead if one of the rotors gets destroyed.
@@abvmoose87 No they are not. It can fly on one, and if one egine is damaged their is a shaft inside the wing allowing one engine to rotate both props.

The USCG should have adopted the AW609 or the XV15 both would enhance CG Operations across the board
Wow! Thank you for the video
💪💪💪
Good send it to Ukraine !!!
The sound of the S-97 reminds me of the V-1 rocket
The invictus or the AH66 Comanche is a way better future gunship.
Both aircraft stated above are gunships, and the Apache isn't going anywhere. The Army needs a scout bird, not another attack helicopter!
.5 mm are you sure you have that right on the machine gun?
They’re ultra new tech machine guns using BBs
Nail gun
Great video, but the creator needs to rename the title because various non-US and non-combat helicopters such as AgustaWestland have been covered!
Totally agree with that!
V-280 will never replace the Blackhawk…. It is too complicated and requires too many hours of downtime for maintenance ….
Agreed. Not many ppl think about the added training required.
i need the controls to be levers.

1:16 50 milimeter 😂😂😂😂
So .... the USSR was right about the helicopter and vertical take off ...😊
There was an idea of a version of the Osprey to replace the S-3 Viking
Since when is the USAF involved in helicopter development and procurement. The Key West Agreement gave rotary wing R&DaP to the US Army.
I think tilt-rotor plane would be a better designation for v280, osprey and aw609 rather than helicopter.
Damn, I wanna know more about these fifty-millimeter-calibre rifles that the US is fielding now
Ehang just doesnt look safe to me haha, id wait for a sturdier looking design if i was in the market.
One very old, low tech, shoulder fired RPG should take care of this.

Parece un magnífico diseño muy superior al 'Alligator' ruso, aunque seguramente más costoso.
Don't forget to leave a few hundred in Afghanisthan.
Emp will disable this
The v-22 is not a helicopter. It is a rotary-wing aircraft. That is not nit-picking.
Looks good but i bet airwalf would still win
I bet that AirWOLF would do even better.
Ah yes. The 50mm gun
Gonna get eliminated by Boeing, in a legal battle
I see those drone helicopters and can't help but think that is a lot of blades to cause damage 😅
I think it id better to send to Ukraine to prove its mightiness.
Welcome to the age of helicopters dogfighting.
Fly it in Russia if it’s that good 🤭
Very good in presentation but in actual combat it is a toy🤣🤣🤣

The narrator said 50mm but in the video it read 0.5mm. i dont think there is a .5mm round thats like a pin side caliber.
What is 407kp/h? 0:34

another "miracle weapon". For 30 years we have looked at many such. How many of them went into production?
Heleh cah bayi.
I personally think the osprey is garbage I can't wait to replace it...
Which war was that you won in the past 70 years - don't think you have competitors only imaginary enemies.
Yet ......NO AIR WOLF !

Hi
👍
and still non of them can beat Airwolf ... LOL
Where’s the Air Force ones…
fault:
0.5 mm is NOT the same as 50 caliber ... just saying 50 calibur is half an inch whereas 0.5 mm is about the thickness of a needle
What about all the accidents it was involved in 😢😢😢😢😮😮😮😮😮
Looks like DRAGONFLY from walker texas ranger.
🔥🔥🔥
How about we get healthcare instead?
lol it says 0,5 mm caliber rifle. that is quite small. I suppose that should be 0,5 inches or 12,7 mm
50 mm caliber rifles? Come on. Stick to a measurement type.
And for special operations to liberate Zaporizia nuclear power plant!
😂 couldn't get me on a v22.
