@@Global_military_forum I would love to see how destroyers stash their cache of missiles and how they fire and reload. I feel like a lot of us uninitiated folk don’t really consider that force too seriously, but it’d be cool to see!
When the rotors are vertical, the engines are wide open to the elements. Such as Dirt, Moisture and even worse Direct gunfire. Anyone know why this isn't a concern?
The jet engines on all aircraft are exposed like this unless special filtering systems are incorporated.... It's useless to armor the engines fwd intake, if you're flying in an aspect they can shoot directly down intake, you're flying it wrong.
The problem I have with the V 280 valour design , is the size, mass of the " rotor blades" which are just way too big! Yes the concept is well proven, but there is something awkward about the massive size of the rotors, something that doesn't look right, especially in forward flight. It would be hard , almost impossible to miss hitting the rotors if you were an enemy, firing at them. Thus due the very large area that they sweep out, they are an obvious target and thus vulnerability of the craft, you'd have to be blind missing hitting them! . Also the ground profile too , is much larger than even a large helicopters sweep. Thus there will be many crucial sites that they will not be able to land , again a weakness of the design. Yes it is faster than normal helicopters , and can fly further, but this performance, this hybrid helicopter/ aeroplane, has some serious operational compromises! Two very serious weaknesses , rotors you can't miss, if you shoot at them, and an enormous ground profile limiting where the craft can actually land! You may disagree, but the facts are facts!
No your "facts" are you saying "I fell it would be hard to miss or It looks like a larger target"... I swear people seem allergic to researching about anything before saying garbage. The Black Hawk is barely armored... if they can hit the Valor they would be able to hit the Black Hawk just as easily. In the air the Valor would be in and out of the hit zone in half the time meaning it is vulnerable for less of the time as any helicopter is vulnerable. The Valor only has a 19% larger total footprint and can fit in 95% of landing zones you could land a Black Hawk in. The ones it couldn't you would want to avoid with a Black Hawk anyway. Not to mention it does not have to worry about a tail rotor hitting low level objects or people.
It can self-deploy across oceans, something the Sikorsky couldn't come close to achieving.
Congrats Bell
Dude says the same thing 20x in 10 different ways
Its like your stuck in a loop. Its always the same shit again.
Innovative, aerdynamic, tactical, speed.
I'm dead 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Valor won the contract, we will be seeing more of her.

You've understated the V-280 Valor's top speed ... she's reached 305 kts
Man this is wild. Love the content yall.

It’s not a helicopter, it’s a tilt rotor.

this is a prototype still.

Not a helicopter…it’s a tiltrotor aircraft…the whole reason Bell made this thing is because it’s not a helicopter…
Poor design. You need 4, 5 or 6 fans, not two. Two are way too unstable. Hollywood got it right with Edge of Tomorrow.
... Man you did not just use a movie as a source....
Valor has 3 blades i don't know what you're refering as fans.
@@totoitekelcha7628 I believe his "fans" are the rotors ... leave him be, with his Hollywood fantasy
