NOTE: this aircraft was developed by Tuman Aircraft design bureau. Tuman is responsible for the fuselage, landing gear, avionics, electrical and hydraulic systems, performance and flying qualities the wing and nacelle, propulsion, rotor, empennage (complete tail system), ramp, overwing fairing and the dynamics, Tuman does not grant any dealer licenses(reselling of our weapons by other dealers) nor manufacturer licenses
[btw tuman means haze]
the cost is 15 million $


The aircraft can provide VTOL (vertical take-off and landing) with a payload of 26 troops, or 10,000lb

The TMN-80 [Haze] tilt-rotor aircraft is available in three configurations: the Combat Assault and Assault Support TMNV-80 for Marine Corps and the Army; the long-range Special Operations TMNs-80 for Special Operations Command ; and the Navy TMNN-80, for combat search and rescue/hospital, special warfare and fleet logistic support.

The aircraft operates as a helicopter when taking off and landing vertically. The nacelles rotate 90 degrees forward once airborne, converting the aircraft into a turboprop aircraft.

it includes terrain-following, multi-mode radar.night-vision system FLIR, which is mounted on the nose. This system contains a 3-5 micron indium antimonide staring focal plane array.

oh btw The Tu-80 is fully shipboard compatible, It is able to operate off all Navy amphibious ships, assault carriers, and can be stowed on full-size carriers. For stowage, the wings are rotated to lie above and parallel to the fuselage to create a compact rectangular volume. The automatic wing and rotor folding sequence, which can be completed in 90 seconds in a 60-knot wind, is as follows: the aircraft lands in helicopter mode; the two outboard blades of each rotor are folded inboard; the nacelles are rotated forward to cruise mode; and the wings are rotated by 90 degrees clockwise.

OOC question:
Doesn't "tuman" mean more "fog" than "haze"? :shock:

OOC: I saw the specs for that on the site that you got the pic from...and I don't believe that it's rotary-form unless it's a different design (since the specs, and the pictures, show the rotary blades overlapping above the centerline when in the up position...meaning that they'd overlap in the forward-rotated position...right through the fuselage).

I'd be interested in it as it really is...as an innovative design that places the two counter-rotating blades along the latitudinal axis.
