Kineco Kaman Composites India Overview
Very nice, thanks.
I worked in Bloomfield on Cobra Blades and Sheetmetal from 1980-1994.
I worked at Kaman in Windsor Locks next to Bradley Field from 68 to 72.. Great memories.
Right now there is one K-MAX clearing trees right outside my window. Sooooo cool, been watching it all morning
its a beautiful aircraft. to me the Sea King is like the family car where as the Kamen is like the two door sports version, the coupe.
she got OF?
Why was production stopped? Just read about it.
May I ask if they can lift my self-esteem?
I just saw a seasprite in the local air museum
I was a member of the UH2C-D program for LAMPS in the 70's. We had the only 2 Kamans in the world configured for the Test program. Wound up in Vietnam for weapons detection. Later in the U.S., while testing for LAMPS, we discovered a Russian sub; unknown to be there at the time. Following LAMPS I was with COM7THFLT on an UH-2C attached to the Admiral on USS Oklahoma City and we were involved in an 21 person rescue off the Scarborough Shoals; we picked up the first 11 persons out of the water. The two most satisfying points in my life before or since. We got 2 Presidential Citations for these accomplishments and all due to a Kaman helicopter model that still serves around the world today!
Oh, so that's how you pronounce it
HH43 헬리콥터를 더욱 발전시켜야 한다 가장 많은 구조와 응급 환자를 살린 헬리콥터로 역사에 남기는 영광을 KAMAN
I can’t believe pilots fly these. Just so much that can go wrong.
It's not a sports car. It's a truck. It's made to do one thing...external loads. If you need speed you get another type of helicopter.
The only way you can fly it with no butts is unmanned and that isn't fun at all.
Nice pics ,,, dodgy voice over though ...
These twin rotor helis are the bomb. As stable as a quad, or more so. Can lift more than their own weight. No tail rotor. Autonomous flight capable. Easily outfitted with weapons, or Firefighting equipment, observation gear. Single pilot only required. Externally mounted instrumentation so pilot can keep eyes on the load. Very simple controls. 2 foot pedals, 1 joystick. Top notch performance. Agile, fast, nimble, ready to work. Wow, what fantastic design.
To fly is heavenly, to hover divine. Rotary wing aviation there is simply no substitute. A CH 53 will pick up that K-Max with it's 6000 pound load and fly away with it. FLY NAVY!!!
Perhaps... but that same CH53 takes a lot more fuel and manpower to fly and that big bird has a tail rotor.... Not even in the same category. Go pick on a helicopter of the same size that has a conventional tail rotor; LOL! Btw... Thank you for your service if that is really who you are.
@@stot2614 The only thing even close to the E model 53 is the Russian is MI-26. They are replacing the E model with the K which has even more power. Yes I did serve it's no BS as did many in my family WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam. FLY NAVY!!!
@@USNveteran Just remember this is not comparing like aircraft. 😉 I respect all branches of the U.S. military.
@@stot2614 I'm not talking about like aircraft the video says it will lift virtually anything. Don't think there is any rotary wing aircraft out there that can lift an Abrahams tank. Looks like the Marine Corp is having good success with the K-MAX. Thanks for the respect for all services they all earn it. FLY NAVY!!!
@@USNveteran Virtually anything in its capabilities... Never read too far into context. 😉
Hello I would like it for reforestation Cost please
Is this the facility in CT or do they have one down south?
Самый удивительный и простой из вертушек .
The Japanese term Wabi-Sabi comes to mind.
🌹🌹🌹
Will China start manufacturing Kmax?
K-MAX is made in the USA!
Can i get it with extended tow mirrors?
Contact us directly via our website and we can talk about customization!
Lmao
Good machine.
It sure is!
Would have been cool if the paint job mimicked a dragonfly...!? 🤔☺️
Possibly, we'd love to see it too!
Pretty neat technology! In flight track and balance capability. Kaman builds some very mission capable aircraft!
as a kid my brother and I got to climb aboard one of the first Navy Seasprites at an airshow at Lakehurst NAS...To this day I still say that the Seasprite was the proto type for all other jet engined helicopters,and that includes Sikorsky and Bell...Kaman was light years ahead of the pack...and I also turned 70 this year ...
Thanks for sharing! Happy 70th Birthday to you!
Goofy looking but it’s obviously a great design.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder :D
perfect
Worked on these back in 1980 N.A.S Norfolk.HSL-30.They look even better now.
I'd love to work at Kaman, unfortunately it seems they don't have a lot of technician openings. Maybe turnover is very low.
Yes. Turnover is very low. Very family oriented company. You do know they also make Ovation guitars right ?
A man has fallen in river Get it LEGO city
So does it cost as much as a truck or still that much that the customers expect a bit more flexibility?
It costs 7 million dollars
Surprised how soon it was on its own wheels. It looks like with a trestle and crane you could do almost any repair in the field!
Was there in 09.was cute to watch a robot take 20 times our time
this is rad
You know a great aircraft when after they stop building them, they decide to reopen the line. This was long ago, not SH-2Gs. Seasprite and Vigilante are two of those great aircraft.
I thought it was ugly at first glance, but after watching a number of videos I am starting to like it
A third K Max is being purchased.
Admit it guys, we're all here because of the Lego City Meme
H E Y
We need to hurry guys! A man a fallen into the river in Lego City!
Hey
Me when a man falls into the river in Lego City
That is one ugly looking helicopter
Been there, done that. And, all done doing it.
This was great to see!! Really love the overall design of the K-Max. Nothing more beautiful than a purpose-built machine. Always amazes me how quiet they are, too! The only thing that puzzles me a bit is the tail boom. The Huskie seemed to do well without it, and there's no tail rotor, so why stick a conventional tail boom on it that sticks out beyond the rotor discs? I'm no engineer, so I'm asking honestly, not being a smart-ass. Again, beautiful machine and I'm happy to see/hear they're back in production!
Great question! The K-MAX’s longer tail boom with a single vertical fin and rudder reduces weight, drag and mechanical complexity compared to the HH-43B Huskie’s four-fin design (with two cross-linked rudders), while still providing good handling characteristics in forward flight. In general, stabilizing surfaces become more effective the further they are from the center of gravity of the helicopter - thus, a longer tail boom can be used to either increase stability (or controllability) obtained with a particular fin, or alternatively, to allow the designer to use a smaller, lighter fin configuration, while still achieving the same handling qualities.
@@KamanCorporation - That's really interesting! Thanks so much for the reply! I hadn't thought about the effectiveness of the control surfaces changing the further away from the center of gravity they get. Objectively, the K-Max has always seemed to look much more stable in flight, particularly in hover, than conventional helicopters, which always seem to be dancing on the head of a pin. Great innovation and engineering! And I really enjoyed the "Saga of Kaman Helicopters" posts on RUclips. What a great story! I have to say, having grown up loving the look of the AH1 cobra, the K-Max looks like it's begging to be a gunship! I know that's not what she was designed for, but with that profile and lift capacity, she could definitely be the cobra's meaner big brother! Thanks again for the reply!
В добрый путь. И идея вертолета хорошая.
