Designation

edit

Some pages I've seen hint that the "missing" H-36 designation may apply to this aircraft, but since they're the manufacturers of models of it, I'd prefer to see additional information on that - designation-systems.net discusses this as well. - The Bushranger (talk) 23:47, 26 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

No Tail Rotor, Vertical Stabilizers

edit

It should eventually be noted that this design lacked a tail rotor, and relied on vectored thrust from the main jet engine to counter the main rotor torque. Also, the illustration differs from the Sikorsky artwork: the delta wing here is very narrow by comparison, and the two vertical stabilizers projected downward from the wings almost to the ground.
