In January of this year, Kobe Bryant crashed, a generation of stars suddenly died because of his many netizens and fans of the pity.
Helicopter crash incidents are frequent, some netizens will wonder why not choose parachuting when the helicopter crash?
Let’s find out.
The flight principle of helicopter mainly depends on the rotor on the top of the aircraft and the tail wing of the aircraft to provide lift force and control direction.
So to bail out like a fighter pilot, a helicopter pilot would have to blow the main propeller, then the canopy would fly out, and then the pilot would eject.
At present, only the Russian Ka-50/52 helicopter is equipped with active escape device in the world’s active helicopters. Most helicopters, including the well-known American AH-64D Apache attack helicopter, are not equipped with active escape device.
So does a helicopter that doesn’t have an active escape device mean it’s not responsible for the pilot?
If there is an accident, it can only destroy people, right?
In fact, most helicopters do not use active escape devices for the reasons that on the one hand, the load of helicopters is limited, and the operation and safety of escape devices need to be considered;
On the other hand, most existing helicopters are designed with passive escape in mind, which means that the fuselage deforms to absorb the shock wave and protect the pilot. The principle is similar to that of an F1 car, which is deformed but the pilot is not harmed.
To sum up, the ejection escape device installed in the helicopter is not only practical to be tested, but also will greatly reduce the weapon load of the helicopter.
According to the actual test, the helicopter in the event of an accident, unless there is a risk of explosion, will choose to parachute, otherwise with the helicopter crash landing to the ground is a safer choice.
The latest market dynamics at any time to see, please pay attention to.
