But we are talking about the Russian-Emirati concept of an unmanned attack helicopter of the Phenom scheme, the development of which is the responsibility of JSC Rosoboronexport and Tavazun. The rotorcraft is in the form of a full-scale model with a complete set of model airborne weapons and aviation weapons.Representatives of the Emirati company told a Status-Arms correspondent that the main task of the current stage of the joint program is to analyze the potential market for a promising rotorcraft. The developers provided for the possibility of its use for hitting ground targets, providing air support for assault units, combat tanks and air targets, including unmanned aerial vehicles.Helicopter take-off weight – 2300 kg, payload weight – 1000 kg, maximum flight range – 850 km, cruising speed – 230 km/h, maximum speed – 260 km/h, flight altitude – up to ‘at 5500 m, flight time – 5 hours.A multi-channel gyro-stabilized optical-electronic station is installed in the nose of the helicopter. Containers with unguided aircraft missiles are installed on pylons under the wing consoles. On the starboard side there is a retractable aircraft cannon with a load of shell ammunition. It is assumed that the composition of the on-board armament can be changed to meet customer requirements.It can be added that if we had not closed the project of the Ka-50 “Black Shark” single-seater, most likely we would already have our own original attack helicopter-robot. After all, it was designed as the first step towards creating an unmanned rotorcraft. And all the prerequisites for this were. But for some reason, the military saw no prospect in robotizing helicopter technology. On the contrary, they insisted on turning the single “Shark” into a double “Alligator”. Now, perhaps with the joint efforts of Russian and Emirati specialists, a robotic helicopter will appear again. It is characteristic that black prevails in the coloring of the “Phenom”, as in the Ka-50.
