@jpphoopha of course he was my source is the Office of Naval research ! what´s your source?

[jpphoopha]

@ad220588 According to Charles Kaman, Anton Flettner did not become chief designer at Kaman Aircraft; in fact Flettner never joined the staff at Kaman Aircraft. I suggest you research better.

@GrigoriZhukov Intermesching rotors on a helicopter are a set of two rotors turning in opposite directions. The arrenagement was developed in Germany bei Prof. Antron Flettner for a Fl. 282 Kolibri. Flettner himself become the chief designer of Kaman Helicopter. I suggest you to research better....

@ozeangruen actually you would be wrong....dead wrong. I suggest you do some research, becuase obviously you haven't a clue about what you are talking a about.

At 1:23 minutes, it is strange to see the M-16 being swung around menacingly-without a magazine in the well. Take another gander, it doesn't even look like he has a 20-round magazine inside!!

The Husky never suffered any losses, they say. It has Spruce--i.e., wooden-- rotors.
