[chopper2004]

Having attended Dubai Air Show 2023 this week, great to see first appearance of the Korean Aerospace Industries KUH-1E Surion and LAH (Light Armed Helicopter) so here are my photos

Interesting pictures.

Does anyone have any updates on the MUH-1 Marineon (a modified version of the Surion) crash that occurred in 2018? One main rotor blade broke off, followed by the rotor. The Koreans initially blamed Eurocopter/Airbus for the mast, similar to the 332 L2's, while the rotor hub itself is a Korean design/manufacturer. I couldn't find any new information online.

Was the Ukraine at the show?? Seems a little tasteless to me to have Russia showing the Kamov if they were there. Bet they didn't get access to the machine... :=
