A Franco-Chinese-American helicopter hybrid?

Peter at Bayou Renaissance Man - 17 hours ago
I was struck by a visual aircraft comparison over the weekend. This one dates back to the early 1960's, when France's Aerospatiale produced the SA 321 Super Frelon medium-lift helicopter. It used three turboshaft engines of moderate power, and could carry up to 27 troops or passengers. It was particularly suited to high-altitude operations, because its power-to-weight ratio was very favorable, and its large rotor was understressed for its size and carrying capacity. (All photographs below are courtesy of Wikipedia's multiple Web sites). South Africa bought 16 of them (one is... more »

What has been going on here is outrageous and clearly a product of seriously stupid people who form the so called DEEP STATE. All driven by self serving money from the arms lobby.

*by Noah* You're a fine man Mr. Cummings, and those are fine words, but Republicans do not consider "this country" to be their country. Some of them have never left The Confederacy. Some of them sold out to Russia when they accepted all that Russian cash that the NRA laundered just for them. Some, if not all, went for having it both ways.
