Hi,
Hypothetical Soviet Compounds of Tishchenko. Apparently, a broad study was
performed by the Tishchenko design team before selecting a final configuration for a large
52-ton gross-weight rotorcraft transport. Eventually, the study led to the development of the
Mil Mi-26 helicopter. However, other configurations were investigated, including side-by-side
(Fig. 3.24) and single-rotor (Figure 3.25) compounds.
