Glad to see the Russians are still adept at making UGLY...

If the counter rotate blades are anything like the “stealthy” Bear bomber, it won’t be long for a whole new class of deaf Ruski Aircrews and sailors.

And our Apache is a good looker?

The Rooskies are the last to stick with the counter rotating rotor blades. Easier to fly, higher payloads and more maneuverable as well as quieter. No torque or tail rotor failures to deal with, the latter deadly under power.

I will be curious to know what the specs on this thing are.
