Looks like the airfield right outside the hangars where I worked for 14 years and saw the Comanche make its first flight, as well as many military aircraft do fly-bys past us and the Pratt & Whitney plant on the same property...at the sound of the approaching military aircraft, all the tools on the shop floor would crop in unison as the guys would run out to watch the aircraft perform high speed maneuvers and usually a full power, straight up climbout in afterburner at the end of the display...
The contra-rotor design looks like something very visible on radar. Apparently, Boeing missed the part about Future Vertical Lift desiring stealthy helicopters.
@@maxiemusfpv198 Fixed rotor (no flapping) has been around for ages as has the counter rotating twin rotors (no tail rotor needed). I imagine they have refined the blade design and added the rear thruster prop to allow it to fly faster in forward flight. Nothing earth shattering. Just old tech that's been updated.
intellectual I am waiting for the new 777X to make its first flight, goal is June 21 19 !!!!! FAA has the software fix and its in the approval process !!!
I knew i'd seen footage of this thing actually flying at speed sometime ago...well OK it's not exactly, but it's a commercial version called SIkorsky X2. The predecessor to this militiarized version by the looks but flies the same i guess and that thing can hit 250 knots. I've also just found there's an S97 Raider too
So it is basically a re-emagening of the Lockheed AH-56 Cheyenne with a twist of Kamov KA-50 Black Shark koaxial main rotor system...and mady some NOS parts frome the Boeing-Sikorsky RAH-66 Comanche.
How much of that fuselage is for cargo and how much is engine? The video makes it look like it has a minimal Cargo capacity. Now they have counter rotating rotors why not a counter rotating Prop?
I've never heard a factory test pilot say anything negative about the machine they're testing. Can't imagine they would still have a job if they ever did point out the negatives
When you can make the avionics with the extreme reliability that the military needs, then I'll be impressed. All this new technology is cool but means nothing when it breaks after less than 50 hours of flight time in the desert. The goal of the next helicopter project should be reliability as priority number one. Not innovations that just fail in a real world environment
I get it its nice but you forget the one thing it lacks, Cargo capacity. No joke 3/4 of the Defiant is dedicated to the engines period. The space for people ends at a foot behind the rear window. That said I can see the Defiant and the Valor complimenting each other very nicely.
I'm not an expert but from what I know, basically it's used instead of tail rotor to cancel out the yaw caused by the main rotors. Doing it this way means the helicopter can travel faster in level flight and gives it much better stability in hover. The downside is its more complicated to maintain and repair. It's called a coaxial rotor design if you want to look into it more.
The Aerospace Engineers must have played Journey to Silius (an Nes Game) at some point in time, because the 1st boss on the game is this helicopter. I always wondering if someone would actually try to really make this type of aircraft, and I guess now it's real.
Enough with the hovering already I want to see it's forward flight performance and stopping on a dime like the pilots stated.
lol they're BS'ing every1
Developmental testing is a slow process of stepwise progress. They'll get around to it soon enough.
They copying the Chinese.
I’m trying to think why a tactical combat aircraft would want to have a giant push prop in the back?

Well they told us what its supposed to do but yet they have not proven anything-_- lets just hope its not gonna end up like the 737 max

The base of the design was nature.
So much potential with that configuration. Nice to see it in continued dev.

'So how many rotors do you want?'
'Yes'

Lockheed Martin (with the AH-56 Cheyenne): Yeah just change some things around

The Cheyenne didn’t have counter rotating main rotors.

It would actually be cool if the video showed what the narrators were talking about. That is some boring footage.

Builders: hey what if we combine 3 helicopters!
The competition has been flying for over a year, already reached 300+knots!
Sounds like the ah-56 Cheyenne to me. That helicopter was truly innovative
WOW SUCH SPEED AND RANGE!
Low speed maneuvers in this thing is awesome.
I think it'll be the deciding factor and I'm calling it now: Boeing wins this.
oh look its a Cheyenne from the 1970's
Usually Helicopters are always windy when close to trees or the ground, but this new Helicopter does not kick up no wind which is awesome
Huey UH-1 crew chief 87-92 hoorah!
@MLWATKK Yes, enjoyed turning wrenches on the old huey and not afraid to fly in it like the "crash hawk".

@@ivanthedancingbear5288 I don't know man, SB-1 has better low speed performance it seems (compared to a tilt rotor design,I may be wrong)

Pretty much a larger S-97. Cool 👍
Doesnt the counter rotation blades have same princible as in the submarine propulsor system?
Beautiful
This is a modern military machine
Amazing !
And a drone spooky version for infantry support😎😋

Go fly a kite. But then a dung beetle like you wouldn't know how.

Very good........thank you !!!
Great video
Great work.
I guess using the push prop was the way to circumvent the limitation where the tips of rotors can't break the sound barrier?
Amazing helicopter 🚁
but may be they were planing to use it underwater too😀
Safety features are extra and can be obtained through DLC on Boeing's website.
Great work team
So you guys finally put those 3d animations to a working prototype then?
Interesting design, does anyone know if there are any drawings or plans of this new helicopter? I want to understand how it works

I can tell you how it works.
The powerplant sucks, smashes, bangs, and blows. That turns rotors. Rotors move air.

How fast can it climb?
Can you go far by turning two rotors? Energy to turn two would be required.
Who wanted them to show how it works when the back rotor spins too?
Get ready for the knock off chinese version of this aircraft
Most people here are not aware that US have these planes for more than 50 years now this is just a new model
@Rata 4U nobody knows about except for you
Looks like an updated Cheyenne from years past.

I'd love to get to dat choppah.
Aside from the "sub rotor" isn't this Kamov design, which has been in use since 70's. I guess better late then never 🤷
Does it have MCAS?
Does it have weapons?

Markus turbojets are harder to reverse with the same efficiency.

Lindo equipamento!!!!!
Can it still fit into a C-17 with a taller rotor?
What advantage does dual rotor design provide? Thanks
I'm not an expert but from what I know, basically it's used instead of tail rotor to cancel out the yaw caused by the main rotors.

It's called a coaxial rotor design if you want to look into it more.
sooooooo kinda like The Lockheed AH-56 Cheyenne that was canceled. I hope this moves forward
That really is a great-looking aircraft.
Looks don't mean much in the final analysis, but they don't hurt. ;-)
The Aerospace Engineers must have played Journey to Silius (an Nes Game) at some point in time, because the 1st boss on the game is this helicopter. I always wondering if someone would actually try to really make this type of aircraft, and I guess now it's real.
What a technical monstrosity. Maintenance intensive!
The v 280 been flying for a year and half. SB 1 Defiant still a hangar queen.
I love Sikorsky aircraft - but this looks like a solution in search of a problem.
Америка.это.сила.и.спроведливость
A lot of vulnerable complexity & energy use ? It'll 'gobble' fuel ? But it will look good at air shows ?
Does it have apple CarPlay and android auto? Blind spot warning?
Isn't this just like the Russian Kamov? They've being doing dual rotor blades for decades.
