@Saulscmit Really?I thought the coaxial rotors reduced the sound

[Saulscmit]

@gtamodman122 Not really. Awesome hellicopter but has a higher radar cross section & is about as loud as a Mi-24 or AH-64

[gtamodman122]

@TheSciFiCat I don't remember about the radar signature,but I think the coaxial rotors make it more silent

Dragonfly could have been another name,dragonflies have 2 sets of wings I think.or it looks like they do.

Looks awesome, but I wonder if the coaxial rotor system gives off a bigger radar signature than a standard helicopter. How does it compare noise wise as well?

[justdoodleit]

No doubt. It's distinct shark form is a killer. Actually most of Russian aircrafts have organic flowly forms that look and perform superbly. Su-Flanker & MiG-Fulcrum are good examples too.
