Focke Achgelis Fa.284
1/144 scale, PRICE US$25 (plus P/P)

History
This project of a heavy transport and salvage helicopter is dated 1943. The basic layout of the Fa.223 was to be enlarged and reinforced. Two BMW.801 (2x1600hp) were to drive two huge opposite rotating rotors of 16m diameter. The cargo was to be housed in a large detachable freight compartment under the fuselage. The design was ready and construction began, but was terminated because of the difficulties with large bevel gears.
It's interesting to note, that the alternative to this project was a proposition to join in "Zwilling" form two Fa.223 helicopters.
