New Eurocopter

Update.......?? X-2 Raider

This may not be new......

But just some shots of the X-2 or in olive drab.......now the X or S-97 Raider Program

something to browse if you haven't seen it....

looks like they are bringing the pusher attack helicopter again.....

But, with budget cuts.......???

Lifts 10,000lbs.........I like that
 
X-3 Eurocopter.....press release shots

Magazine Stand had both

X-3 and X-2.....in a side by side comparision

Here are some X-3 shots

In the France video.....pilot almost rolled the X-3. They need to beef up landing gear if landing like an aircraft. Its top heavy for that small of wheels.
 
Actually, an autogyro has an unpowered main rotor, so these are compound helicopters. AKA gyrodynes.

Helicopters with props ..............

are different then auto-gyro's ...this is true

Auto Gyro's......The blades were set in motion by the forward motion of the aircraft and the draft from the props...which produced lift

I believe???
