Newbie KB Maslov has shown their RU-MAS 240 chopper teaser. Istead of reposting more images, here's the link to original site http://kbmaslova.ru/A.html
While going on the technical side, Ru-MAS 240 should have some interesting features, like rotors pitch control rods hidden inside hollow drive shaft, jetissoned crew cabin for rescue, etc. Seemingly, we see engineering outsourcing case, as they hire aviation engineers.
While I hardly believe this project (or any other od Maslov's choppers) ever will be completed under current economic conditions, but anyway, this one is interesting.
