  • Опубліковано 7 січ 2021
  • On 11th August 1986, a Lynx helicopter (G-LYNX), built in Yeovil by Westland Helicopters, (now Leonardo helicopters), flew over a 15km course on the Somerset Levels at an average speed of 400.87 km/h (249.10 mph) and was officially recognised by the Federation Aeronautique Internationale.
    In doing so it became the world’s fastest helicopter and set a World Helicopter Speed Record that has never been beaten.

    Scary helicopter to fly in, and loved every minute of it

      Hedge hopping was interesting the first few times and the noise when it banked severly. It was my favourite of the army helicopters.

    I only recently learnt that the engines were modified to provide thrust, that is how it achieved it's speed. The standard Lynx was not able to achieve this speed.

    На сколько мне известно это самы быстрый вертолет в мире дай бог таким и оставаться,я имею в виду одновинтовую схему с хвостовым винтом.

    Somebody please develop a tactical helicopter that can do CAS runs at 450 knots. Please!

      How?
      That would be a forward speed of 760ft/s, Mach 0.68, under standard sea level conditions.
      What Mach number would the forward traveling, rotor blade tip experience?
      Supersonic.
      Your rotor would be experiencing Supersonic flow at the rotor tip, transitioning to Transonic mid span, and high subsonic at the root. This on the forward traveling blade. The aft traveling rotor blade would be entirely subsonic. With a transition between the two flow regime's somewhere along the blade, and along the entire blade at some angle of rotation. Every single revolution.
      This would be a stability and controllability nightmare. Nearly impossible to predict performance accurately enough for a project go ahead. And it would be obscenely and ear shatteringly noisy, to the point personnel inside would go deaf, people on the ground would petition the government to smelt it down to raw alloy.
      And enemies would hear it coming before it even crossed their neighboring country.
      Dumb.
      This is many of the reasons why the V-22 Osprey is a thing.
      And the Harrier.
      And F-35C.
      If you want a 450ktas hovering craft, start with one of these concepts.

      @@BritishHelicoptersHistory I think you miss typed . Should be 400.87km/h.
      I worked on the development (vibration tests) of the Lynx (WG13) late 1960's while an apprentice at Westland Helicopters.
